Reply to comment by ML4Bratwurst in full body tracking with WiFi signals by utilizing deep learning architectures by Shelfrock77

Unless someone is surveilling you in particular, I doubt this provides much useful data that can't already be gathered from tracking your phone usage

Well you can just not use your phone and you would be safe. With this technology (maybe more advanced one) you can not escape it

That ship sailed a while ago, bud. Special forces and swat have had this tech for a while.

Hardly the same thing. That requires someone to be on the other side of a wall. This development would potentially allow anyone to weaponize any Wi-Fi antenna for surveillance.

It's exactly the same thing, physically. It's just that in this case your subjects have brought the transceiver inside for you.

So what are you arguing? That because SOF/SWAT uses a local tool in specifically targeted scenario, I should not be concerned about this new technology that democratizes remote surveillance in a way never before seen?

Special forces can just deliver radar by drone, you won't notice.
