I liked the suggested applications of this knowledge. You could make a device which detects if cops are around and, say, automatically self-destruct your computer. Alternatively, you could use it to verify the presence of a body cam or automatically determine if you're near a known "bad apple" officer.
Also heartened to see that, despite the subject matter, the presentation was pretty much apolitical.
(Edit: Oh hey OP, are you the speaker? Super well done!)
So you can find out where people work from their bluetooth, and just leaving a few devices in public running wiggle, like inside parked vehicles. Over time you can track down who works where, their shift patterns etc etc.
Tracking your friendly journalists and photographers of the press has never been so easy. I dont think they will appreciate one turning up at their family home or second home for a statement!
There is no privacy.
If you zoom out of the wigle map, there is radio silence for ukraine.
