So the government knows I go to work, to the store, and a Mexican restaurant? They must be bored out their minds. But yeah, if you plan on committing a murder, or overthrowing the government, leave your phone at home.

I clicked on something that said I’d review things. As I drove around, whenever I passed someplace, McDonalds, a massage parlor, Winn-Dixie, a state park, I’d get a text asking me to review my visit to said location. Finally managed to get rid of that ap.

An employee at work was murdered. They had the purps in custody in hours. They were able to tell what cell phones had been at the murder scene at the time of the murder. (There were five and they were all involved. Two pimps and three hookers. Turns out the employee was running a side business.)

Every time I get in my car and begin to drive away I get a message on my phone that tells me that (the usually work) destination is only such and such minutes by such and such route.

I love when I am going somewhere that the phone isn’t suspecting.

And how do you turn location determination off?

Based on what goes to and from your phone, you will eventually lose your job, licenses, ability to travel, medical care, etc. unless you become a die hard useful idiot for left.

How’s it do with a flip phone?

A flip phone does not have a GPS module so they can't pull up your exact location. The phone pings cell towers every few seconds, that is how the phone system knows how to route a call to you. So your general movements can be tracked within a few miles. Flip phones don't have the ability to monitor voice continuously so probably not as risky.

Now the corrupt FBI know I’m a smelly Walmart shopper! Or they could just see how I voted.

Pardon this man

I used to think he was a traitor. As I found out more details I saw that he was upset that the government was spying on citizens and lying about it.

If the Commie Idiots & Arseholes want to listen to me sing along to George Strait when I go to the hardware store they are welcome to it. I've got nothing to hide (that my phone would know about ;-) ).

And of course the video is on YouTube, one of the biggest abusers of Free Speech.
