Foxdigger, thanks for understanding. Some people take it the wrong way and would rather the information isn't shared.

 

The word used is called "METADATA" meaning information about information.

 

Don't think of a photo as being a flat picture, think of a photo as being.....like..........a box of information.

 

You see the photo, but within the box comes a lot of other information depending on what took the photo, if it was connected to GPS or the internet at the time and sending back information to a server, the list is endless.

 

The phone has its own unique ID connected to your details. The people in the photo can be automatically tagged by facebook without anyone having to do it....a machine does it.

 

Times are changing.......I can't wait for the day I can throw my phone into a skip.

Can't you just turn of an I phone to avoid th hassle , spy planes going over and getting your info of your phone, even ferreting I turn it off , just want to be left alone without th bother, everything above board but still getting treated like criminals

I have to tell the lads in N.I. about the grey spy plane.

 

Lads, that plane is equipped with military grade technology we haven't even heard of yet.

 

It pin points dug earth using remote sensing technology and compiles a log of all dug holes and gives the information to those in charge.

 

When the yellow and black helicopter flies over you and notes what you are doing it no longer hovers but instead calls the grey spy plane. It flies over you and sends a signal to your phone. Even though your phone does not look as though it responds it sends a signal back the host. With this signal goes all your info and photos on your phone.

 

The plane does a small circular recce flight with photos of your face and nearby vehicles. Only one facial photo is needed and they use software like face-tagging technology on facebook to find out who you are.

 

You must remember, a cop would need an arrest warrant and a gang of bobby to raid your house, whereas an IT specialist can find out everything about "you and your dog" just by using simple software.

 

I don't want to stir the pot or get people worried, but we are not told about invasive technology that infringes on our basic human rights.

Mobile phones can be pinged when there switched off as long as the battery is in.

[cantona 310]

Foxhound, can it still get info of phone when switched off?

[foxhound45 167]

It can get everything.....even turn your phone camera on, sending video and your phone still looks as though it is off. It can even turn your phone on so they can hear.....everything!

[foxhound45 167]

Not just one phone.........It takes all info off everyone standing around you

[cheeser 306]

it can be retrieved mate be under no illusion :thumbs:

I've been telling people for a long while.....PAYG.

Basic phone, not GPS phone . Don't take pics on it. Stay off FB.

 

You are carrying a TRACKER in your pocket! :icon_eek:

[cheeser 306]

[andy97 209]

were theres a will theres a way unless your scrapping your phone every month theres ways to get onto you however without the gps they carnt pinpoint your location like they can with smart phone and this i no for a fact from certain experiance

this is one of the most informative topics ive read on here in a long time!! a major eye opener and definatly crucial information i will be keeping to the front of my mind when out hunting.......

 

this is mental stuff. technology isnt always a good thing by all accounts!!

[C Hall 552]

Technology can pin point a non gps mobile phone to within a few hundred yards and a gps enabled phone to within a few feet.

f**k me Foxhound, that is some good stuff to know. The military grade spy plane with the camera looking for disturbed earth is mainly used in Afghan. If they can detect a 6" x 6" hole Mohammed dug to put an IED pressure plate in, then a 6' x 6' dig on a badger sett will be seen easily enough...
