So I’ve just been thinking about privacy, and how everyone’s location can be tracked. Then I realized: What about people who have no permission to enter the country?

Like do they just decide to not have a phone, or do they still have phones and just roll the dice and hope they don’t get caught?

    I mean like after they manage to get in. A random phone being detected near the boarders is probably much more easily tracked down, but after they get in its a needle in a haystack, I think.

      Idk, if you are at the point where law enforcement is going to a cell provider with a location request warrant you are pretty much already fucked. They know who you are, they know your phone number, they probably know where you live and work
