Slightly creepy when the government texts you while you're walking through Melbourne Airport (I was cutting through the international terminal to the Qantas domestic terminal).

@timrichards it really is eye opening how we can be tracked by our mobile phones, even without Location Services or Bluetooth MAC tracking.

The problem is that organisations don’t interpret this a being creepy.

We have become so desensitised to having our identities logged into corporate and government databases that we are no longer shocked.

Not airport related, but I was on a shared pathway when I noticed a Police chopper overhead, then got an SMS about a search for a child missing from a couple of streets away.

I wondered if they had a portable broadcast 'tower' in the chopper 🤔

@timrichards it must be Melbourne as it didn’t happen when we moved from International to Domestic in Sydney. Or maybe they are trialing it.

@timrichards ahh yeah, it did that to me on the weekend and I figured they must have something based on a local tower
