When ever you open your phone it sends low burst radio signal that can be read over 100 meters.

Any anons know why this is case? What's use case of sending such signal moment you turn phone on/login?

To check what cell towers are nearby? I don't know.
>>
>>107856356
It's used 13 mhz signal nothing that correlates with cell towers it's same frequency that's used by nfc cards anon. You can literally open up a radio analyzer and figure out whether or not a room is occupied or not. Imagine being a burglar and you can scout out homes by laying this near a house to figure out what time of day they're most active vs not.
>>
some IoT shit I assume
i dont really know, there must be something cool you could do with this info
hook it up to a shock collar that shocks you when you check your phone so you do it less often
>>
>>107856344
Is this done even if NFC is disabled?
I guess its just searching for an NFC payment device upon unlock.
>>
>>107856344
Pay no attention to the electromagnetic radiation, goy, and take your meds

>feds can literally track your behavior by detecting radio signals coming off your phone and make a personality profile of your phone usage , sleep hours and where you stay most of time.
>>
>>107856344
Seeing it is linked with unlocking the phone or turning on the screen it could be related to the starting of the display driver circuit that causes a burst of EMF in that frequency.
>>
>>107856344
Probably scanning for nearby devices in case you're using the feature to auto unlock in the proximity of certain other devices. It probably does this even if you don't use the feature because nobody optimizes their fucking code anymore.
>>
>>107856857
Feds don't need any of this to do that. They have access to cell towers. They can see where your phone is at all times if it's turned on, and can send requests to its cell modem including retrieving any file from the OS.
>>
>>107856857
>>107857124
Yeah it's not really so much the fact that feds can do it so much as it is the fact that anybody can do it, easily. Same with WiFi motion tracking through walls. Anybody can do it with like $100 of equipment. Some script kiddie can watch you fapping through your walls without you ever realizing it

Former Android dev here. It's used for near field com, the nfc, to sync/wake your smart accessories like watches and so

>>107856344
It’s for the british TV licence tax, so they can tell if you’re watching BBC or not from their van parked outside your house,

Oh my god.. that's... that's... ELECTROMAGNETIC RADIATION!!! Radiation is BAD!! What are they doing to us??????

>>107856857
your phone is *a fucking phone*, you fucking idiot. everything it DOES is dependent on radio signals.
>ff-f-f-feds can detect them!
no shit you absolute fucking MORON. this is why the uneducated must never be permitted to speak. incontrovertible idiot. low-iq fucking brownskin ignoramus.
you complaint is 100% equivalent to "if you shine a flashlight or start a fire at night, people can see it!!!!!!!!"
>>
>>107856344
Is there data in that? Some kind of unique ID?
>>
>>107857139
>Yeah it's not really so much the fact that feds can do it so much as it is the fact that anybody can do it, easily
I can't even compose a strong enough shitpost to contain how stupid you are. Of COURSE anyone can do it you fucking idiot, IT'S JUST LIGHT.

DO YOU KNOW WHAT LIGHT IS

DO YOU KNOW HOW WIRELESS DEVICES COMMUNICATE WITH EACH OTHER

>oh my god, people can.. can.. can.. tell when I'm using my wireless device!?!?!?!?
YES YOU FUCKING RETARD BECAUSE THEY WORK BY SPILLING LIGHT OUT INTO THE OPEN ENVIRONMENT, THAT'S HOW THE TECHNOLOGY WORKS. THIS ISN'T SOME "OH MY GOD I JUST FOUND OUT MY PHONE IS DOING THIS" SECRET YOU ABSOLUTE TRUCKTOFACE DESERVING PILE. THAT'S HOW IT FUCKING WORKS.
>>
>>107857450
yes anon it signals out your full name, penis length, and last thing you searched for in an incognito window in morse code
>>
>>107856344
so that's how shitrael or amerimutt tracking their enemy. nice find.

all amerimutt tech literally military intelligence by sending random beacon.
>>
>>107857458
Why not? Many NFC devices would be interested in something like that. If it's just a pulse it's probably the phone checking if an NFC addon is attached.
>>
>>107857451
huh, now i get why LiFi is more secure, thanks anon
>>
>>107856344

maybe is screen activate look image frequency vs resolution
>>
>>107856857
Feds don't need this. Shit, even the Gestapo (ICE) has access to more information: https://www.404media.co/inside-ices-tool-to-monitor-phones-in-entire-neighborhoods/
