No matter WHAT make or type of cellular device you have, it can be tracked by the nature of the technology. It’s inherent in how cellular works. Even older 900Mhz cell phones could be tracked by triangulation of three cell towers. Now, all cellular devices are required to have a GPS chip and radio, and as part of the pinging of the towers to increase connection selection efficiency, the device’s GPS location is included in the ping. Your device is tracked down to the accuracy of that GPS’s chip accuracy. Some are more accurate than others, but all of them, including what are called “dumb” flip phones. That chip is also required for 911 cellular calls, it’s what’s required for the cellular call to be routed to the closest emergency system, and not to Podunk, Iowa, when you’re in Los Angeles.
If you want the convenience of the cellular communications, you accept the consequences and risks of being tracked. The best you can do is limit the apps that access the GPS functions and communicate them to non-authorized recipients, but that is built on the trust of the device’s maker and whose apps they allow on their devices whether that is honored or not.
This is why I don’t regularly carry my devices. Just when I think I am going to need them. I am not the type to feel like I need to be glued to a phone 24/7.
