Test case: You get a voice msg from a friend in the middle of the night. They're in a local park and they need your help right now.

Soon, we will not know whether to act.

Time to work on 'code words' with family and friends, to help filter people from their simulations #opsec

Something must be in the water, because I just got ANOTHER flare up of people asking me about Faraday bags to prevent phone tracking.

Short answer: A Faraday bag probably doesn't solve your problem; they require great care to use effectively. and your phone can be tracked as soon as you remove it.

But if you DO need one, you want one that actually works. Here's a short writeup I did a while back on the theory and practice of testing them:

TL;DR: Science is fun.

What if the "tracking device attached to the bumper" is not a powerful cell phone transmitter (with an obviously limited battery life, unless somehow wired in to the vehicle's electrical system ) but a low powered Apple ?

This might track the vehicle for months, relying on the network of millions IPhones to keep track of it cooperatively ?

How much foil etc. is needed to isolate an AirTag ?

@mattblaze

Does an Apple rely primarily on to periodically beacon its unique identifiers or does it also passively transmit on the shorter range but harder to jam, multi frequency, ?

Or does it only do so in response to an iPhone initiated Find Me active scanning request ?
