not GSM radio

So we’re not talking phones anymore?

no, we already agreed the gsm baseband

Ah good

but at the moment, they can't use radios from wifi aps to find a mac

they wil be able to do this with the 5g networrk even without gsm

even if you are just connected to the lan

because each AP can ping radio then network for a duplex ping

Your mac address won’t leave your router?

It’s not in the packets

yes i know

the mac is you, what they are looking for

the can find you using radio pings spacially or network traces

currently, they can't corealte both of these

but with 5g they will have a type of active sonar

Hmm, I don’t think so

the new equipment is a phased-array setup

the military has used the tech in a similar manner for decades

But the protocols being used haven’t changed..

they don't need the protocols, only the throughput

Hey only asked her if she can and she said:

"No, you know what, it isnt cool to harass people, ok?"

Then a security guard told him to leave the building.

Then how are they going to get your mac address? <:thonking:353271399013416962>

what goes out one side at rate X must come in the other side at the same rate

If the protocols haven’t changed at all?

they can use that in combination with the micro cells in the 5g network to ping a machine with radio

A mobile device, yes

They can do that now

no a stationary device

Yes, same

even if just cat 5

As you can now

Only a device with a RF transceiver will work

no, 5g can 3d map an area using the phased array

So?

they can see through walls

So?

RF goes through walls..

What’s 3g and 4g?

yes but they can't use that rf to find your unique signiture

Why not?

they can with 5g because they can use the throughput of your network asa reference
