“Some devices can still send their location for up to 24 hours after they’ve been turned off or have low battery life.”

“Google began rolling out this feature as “Powered Off Finding” with the Pixel 8 series, letting users locate their phone even when it’s switched off by keeping the Bluetooth chip active.”
And those are only some of the official known possibilities

454·1 year agoThere is no such thing as “off” on modern Smartphones. Even if you power it down things like the baseband prozessor and bluetooth still stay active most of the time.
If the battery is integrated into device there ist no real way to completely shut this things down.
KeepassXC supports passkeys as well.
A good chunk of them are autistic, or ADHD dominated interest groups, like FOSS, or various hobbies. It also includes the LGBT+ crowd.
I call bullshit on that. There may be a slightly more than average representation (maybe not even that) but i have not seen even a single robust proof that indicates it is a “good chunk”.
This whole FOSS and LGBT+ or autistic or whatever is a meme, nothing more.


I feel like people lately go a bit overboard when it’s about protecting their “data”.
As far as I see all it does is just send one single number that shows that there is someone using this specific operation system and it does not include any personal or unique to the user information.
In my opinion this does not even qualify as “my data”
