Can someone explain what this means?
| Basically, if your phone has wifi on, it is constantly broadcasting 'beacons' in an attempt to find known networks and apparently some devices may even try to connect to open wifi networks. For example, if I were to climb my school late at night with my phone's wifi on, it would connect to the network and if anybody spotted me the OCDSB could simply look at the wifi logs and see that I connected around the time of the spotting. I would generally recommend putting it in airplane mode for a wealth of reasons the wifi issue being the least of them. Also, there are these things called IMSI Catchers or 'stingrays' used by certain governments for 'intelligence' purposes and they monitor cellphone activity in an area so if you call somebody, it will know at what time you called, what phone you have, and where you are as well as who you're calling. Newer models can also record calls and texts... About gear, here is what I bring: If the location is urban/restricted with the possibility of being spotted: Water (~1L) Salted Almonds or trail mix Nikon D3200 with 2 lenses Tape Knife (mostly self-defense and I do not recommend that you do too) First aid (not much but I can fix a flesh wound) If the location is not really monitored : Same as above but with 2 race quads and fpv goggles, etc... Also, I may ditch the D3200 in order to pack light with the drones.
