I guess this applies to people who crossed state lines.

I didn’t need to travel, so I was not in a position to violate anything.

Stores and restaurants were closed - which pissed me off - but I was not able to “violate” anything, even if I wanted to.

Bombshell! VICE Reports The CDC Tracked MILLIONS Of Phones To See If Americans Obeyed Lockdown Orders 👀

CDC doesn’t have the capability to do this. So they hire criminals to do this crap!

Big Brother CDC Phones Big Brother Is Watching:

Bombshell! VICE Reports The CDC Tracked MILLIONS Of Phones To See If Americans Obeyed Lockdown Orders 👀

Harris Rigby: May 3rd, 2022 1:45 pm:

“If this ain’t a breach of privacy and an overreach by government, I don’t know what is.”

CDC Tracked Millions of Phones to See If Americans Followed COVID Lockdown Orders:

Newly released documents showed the CDC planned to use phone location data to monitor schools and churches, and wanted to use the data for many non-COVID-19 purposes too.
WWW.VICE.COM

https://www.vice.com/en/article/m7vymn/cdc-tracked-phones-location-data-curfews

The Center for Disease Control has been spying on YOU!
Of course, we now have become so numb that we expect it from the CIA, or FBI, or IRS, or even the post office.

But the CDC looked at tracking info from MILLIONS of phones to monitor how well people obeyed their lockdown orders.

Here it is from VICE.

FROM VICE!
(What a time to be alive!)

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) bought access to location data harvested from tens of millions of phones in the United States to perform analysis of compliance with curfews, track patterns of people visiting K-12 schools, and specifically monitor the effectiveness of policy in the Navajo Nation, according to CDC documents obtained by Motherboard.

The documents also show that although the CDC used COVID-19 as a reason to buy access to the data more quickly, it intended to use it for more general CDC purposes.

Location data is information on a device’s location sourced from the phone, which can then show where a person lives, works, and where they went. The sort of data the CDC bought was aggregated—meaning it was designed to follow trends that emerge from the movements of groups of people—but researchers have repeatedly raised concerns with how location data can be demonized and used to track specific people.

This data that can almost certainly be used to track individuals was acquired during Covid, but the CDC has other reasons they want the info as well.

This is straight-up insane.

The CDC used the data for monitoring curfews, with the documents saying that SafeGraph’s data “has been critical for ongoing response efforts, such as hourly monitoring of activity in curfew zones or detailed counts of visits to participating pharmacies for vaccine monitoring.” The documents date from 2021.

Zach Edwards, a cybersecurity researcher who closely follows the data marketplace, told Motherboard in an online chat after reviewing the documents that “The CDC seems to have purposefully created an open-ended list of use cases, which included monitoring curfews, neighbor to neighbor visits, visits to churches, schools and pharmacies, and also a variety of analysis with this data specifically focused on ‘violence.’” (The document doesn’t stop at churches; it mentions “places of worship.”)

The CDC has the ability to track whether or not you are going to church!

In a world where the government – with an assist from many evangelicals these days – can shut down churches on a whim, it’s even more frightening to know that they can find out whether or not you are at your church in contradiction to their decree.

Keep your phone in a shielded Faraday pouch. It’s fun. It drives them crazy trying to build your habits of travel.

biden proved the kung flu is a scam when he waltzed into the white house, disbanded trump’s “operation warp speed”, opened our southern border, and continues to covertly spread over 2,000,000 nondocumented unvaccinated invaders across our country during a supposed “global pandemic” while anthony fauci, the cdc, the nih, the world health organization, the enemedia, hollywierd, and the majority of our elected representatives sit back and watch...

trust our government to protect you and your health at your own peril...

A friend in another state, had problems since Covid day 1 with the medical doctor, who was a long time church member and on many committees before the shutdowns, masking and other Covid B$.

This doctor has been about 2-5 months behind what their state has recommended re masks and other B$ re dealing with the Covid’s shutdown rules for churches.

I sent this to my friend and suggested, that he send it to his church doctor.

He did, and got a simple and separate phone text message back, saying: “Yep!”.

“I guess this applies to people who crossed state lines.”

Apparently not. If you went to your local church in your home city or zip, that church was probably being monitored by these CDC hired criminals.

They actually weren’t looking for you individually. They were looking for places you went - churches, for example - where they’d have a lot of data points converging.

They tried to shut down churches and synagogues altogether because obviously they thought churches were a threat to their control. And the way they kept tabs on places or institutions that didn’t comply was by monitoring the cell-phone traffic for “forbidden” places that had a lot of people coming in.

The Center for Deceit and Control probably has us on their watch list.

“They actually weren’t looking for you individually. They were looking for places you went - churches, for example - where they’d have a lot of data points converging.”

Looking back,they probably did both.

One of our DNA younger relatives had the Delta a year ago this past August. The health Nazis, knew who he was exposed to (no churches). All of them did the 10 day shutdown/lock up B$.

A non DNA son had the Delta supposedly @ the same time, they knew that he and his family had been in Bodega Bay, and who else to isolate/lockup there and back here.

Yet, the local medical authorities would/could not tell anyone how they had determined that the Delta version was the evil virus with both guys, living and working 50 miles apart.

If they were tracking me it should have been clear IDGAF about their lockdown.

A young friend’s Karen stepmom was trying to track her via her phone, so the girl had a classmate take the phone for a ride while delivering pizzas. So there’s that ;-)
