I just realised, the fact that Maps knew I was on a bus, at the time, even without me telling it, is something that should freak me out more than it does… 😳
Unfortunately that is no longer really legally possible, in Australia, and very much not as simple as it sounds, if I want to catch public transport, enter literally any building/establishment, travel anywhere, go to the doctor, etc, etc...
In the before times? Sure. But currently, that is not really legally an option, in my country, unless you a) grow all your own food, or b) apply and pay for your own personal QR code "ID card" (not making this up), which you are then required to take, everywhere, to track your every move anyway, essentially, so...
At the moment, you are legally required to at least pretend to allow your every move to be tracked. :-/
I know that sounds insane. But that is currently how fucked things are, in Australia...

Fuck, they really do know everything…
Lose the tracking device.

Pity that you gave up your guns.
