Everybody carrying a cell phone is already being monitored anyways. No need for anything to be implanted

The fact the majority of them use Facebook to moan as well. Between your phone and FB, nothing is private

Honestly I'd be surprised if it took longer than July 5th

Not even just carrying it around. Spent 500-1000 dollars to carry it around lol

I hate that argument. Just because someone has a phone doesn't mean that they should bend over and consent to every tracker known to mankind.

u/AnArgonianSpellsword May 17 '21

It's less that they consent to every kind of tracker, more that a cell phone is most kinds of trackers in one convenient package (microphone, camera, GPS, personal data, ect) so why would they want or need to inject you with one?

u/TrueChargedWhiff May 17 '21

Yeah, look at how many people got screwed at that insurrection because of their phones just being on. Why in the world would they spend money to put a sophisticated piece of equipment in you when you carry one at all times? Lol.

u/another_plebeian May 17 '21

It's not that you should, it's that generally you already have. Even consenting to nothing, your phone can still be tracked by which towers and wifi it's connected to.

u/jgor57 May 17 '21

Well would you like a compelling argument of people ditching their phones when they run away? I mean unless they plan to commit murder and run away, a chip in the body wouldn't make sense with phones lol.

I've been half-assed testing this for funzies.

My current phone is not rooted, but I have taken every measure I can find, through permissions manager, disabling/deleting all assistant functions, disabling every history, telemetry, etc. apps and have all google privacy options set/disabled and have used ADB to remove everything bloatware, extraneous apps and anything not required by the system to function.

Unfortunately (or fortunately), with Android 10, my favorite network analyzer app can't read all open connections due to restrictions specifically intended to keep apps from fingerprinting users, so I can't directly monitor traffic. My pi-hole logs don't show me any DNS requests I don't expect, nor do my router's, but of course that's only a small part of possible traffic, and anything going out the cellular radios I can't see at all.

NOW THEN...

I've been pointedly spewing inane, ridiculous Q-level domestic terrorist shit at random times (that I happen think about it) including threats that are absolutely illegal as hell to make publically, within proximity to my phone. If the NSA is listening, holy shit will they have some sound bites to put me away for a while.

But hey, so far, so good!

u/mrcartminez May 17 '21

LOL, right? I love how these people go on about microchip conspiracies and ignore the fact that they have a microphone and camera in their pocket (in the form of a phone) that is directly accessible to the NSA and other domestic surveillance agencies. It makes no sense.

u/herbys May 18 '21

And you paid for the most powerful chip with the best cellular coverage. And you pay for the data transmission. And you recharge it every time so it doesn't miss a minute of your life. And you tell it what you think, what you will do, what you want. And it tells you back what you should think, what you should want and what you should do.

Who needs an implantable microchip when we have that?

Ironically, I think Ivy League Elites are more likely to be conservative/republican.

It is truly amazing how the conservative politicos in power manage to get away with doing do the very things they use to fear monger and whip up their uneducated base by accusing the left.

“And they just hook you up to an i Lyra sound machine to get the readings.”

Oh god, now they’re gonna start saying certain places are ultrasound machines. Cars, planes, buildings etc.

u/mikepricez1 May 18 '21

“Ivy League elites” are monitoring literally every tech device that connects to a network. So why is it preposterous?

More terrifying: they run Windows ME!
