Or - OR, right, everyone can turn off location and WiFi on their phones.
It's true the cell ping is always going, but that's a different thing and definitely not what this tool is using to track people. Odds are good it's using facebook or some other cancer to perform this evil.
I don't think cellular location would be excluded from such tracking tbh. I would rather not take my phone with me at all when visiting such a potentially sensitive place, or at the very least use a Faraday cage.
That would be a better approach, of course.
while the best approach would be to remove conservatism from society by any means necessary. it's honestly self defense now.
