New System Can Identify People Through Walls Using Wi-Fi Signal

Once upon a time, in their startling report titled "Bigger Monsters, Weaker Chains," ACLU analysts Jay Stanley and Barry Steinhardt argued that the US was quickly becoming a full-blown "surveillance society," where advanced technology and crumbling regulation come together to create the kind of world that was previously the domain of dystopian science fiction.

"The fact is, there are no longer any technical barriers to the Big Brother regime portrayed by George Orwell," they wrote.

That was in 2003. In the two decades since, the tech sector has unleashed a tidal wave of innovations like targeted algorithms, always-on location sharing, police face scanners, biometric passports, and surveillance drones — and that's just the short list.

Adding to the technological horror show is a troubling new system known as "WhoFi," a high-tech apparatus that can track humans through Wi-Fi.

A team of researchers at the Sapienza University of Rome recently released a paper outlining a new system capable of detecting "biometric signatures" through distortions in Wi-Fi signals. Notably, the system can surveil humans regardless of lighting conditions, and can sense them through walls.

The researchers say that WhoFi can capture "rich biometric information," identifying individual people with a 95.5 percent accuracy rate.

"Unlike optical systems that perceive only the outer surface of a person," the team writes, "Wi-Fi signals interact with internal structures, such as bones, organs, and body composition, resulting in person-specific signal distortions that act as a unique signature."

Though the researchers say that Wi-Fi is a "non-visual" medium, and therefore "privacy-preserving," the threat to personal privacy is immense. For starters, if deployed in real life, it wouldn't be the only gadget watching our every move, but part of a constellation of existing devices already hard at work tracking our every move.

the demonic following is already apparent

Always reminds me of the orcs spilling out from the mines when the signals are given.

And the signals are being given throughout the breadth and depth of Western Civ, it seems.

Bible prophecy. If you go by that, it never fails. And we are seeing it play out right before our eyes (interesting times).

I have to wonder if that idiot Mamdani (I unfondly call him Mandami) will have a part to play in these end times. He sure fits the required ‘profile’. Comes out of seemingly nowhere... has a plan and is enacting it rapidly, so fast that peoples’ heads are spinning. A very successful tactic by the left and by the evil ones. Saw him on Newsmax just now and there were several blacks standing around him, nodding at his every word. Thus proving, that gullible, easily fooled people that stand for nothing will fall for anything.

IIRC, his original support base was upscale white liberals. Guess the optics weren’t good on that so they had to astroturf with minorities.

“”IIRC, his original support base was upscale white liberals. Guess the optics weren’t good on that so they had to astroturf with minorities.””

Funny you mentioned that... because as I was watching him on Newsmax, there was ‘one’ black lady that seemed to be glancing at him with a ‘not happy’ glare. I couldn’t help but wonder if she was thinking... “why am I ok with “this” white guy being mayor now?”

It’s what anyone with half a brain would be asking if they were a NY black, considering how bad the last two whitey mayors were in NYC. Hell, even Adams was better than de Blasio. But nooo.... gotta go ahead and elect a full-bore commie this time. Might as well get it all out in the open for a change. Stupid.
