The following article was just published today regarding “unfiltered” flight tracking. ADS-B Exchange was interviewed for the piece.
It’s just metadata.
What’s the line the Police State likes to use? “If you’re not doing anything wrong, then you’ve nothing to hide.”
Funny how that rule only seems to apply to US and not THEM.
Saw this on reddit a couple days ago and really it just sounds like a bunch of media hype with nothing behind it. Even if they agree on rolling the transponder hex codes every so often it won’t change anyone’s ability to set up an RTL stick and a 1090 antenna. Look how well rolling codes worked for Nagravision v2 (and even v3) for premium satellite TV. A bunch of nonsense doing nothing other than generating FUD for the media.
Yeah, I spoke with a cop who flys the local police helicopter over the weekend. I asked him if his transponder was Mode S, or if he had ADS-B. He had no clue what that even was. I think we’ll see folks maybe just go to Mode C only (until 2020 at least) if they’re concerned (and know anything).
Re Heli Cop lack.of knowledge.
Obviously an observer and not the Pilot.
He was the pilot. Surprisingly, many pilots don’t understand the technology. I would bet >50% of pilots couldn’t describe the difference between Mode C and Mode S and ADS-B.
Your article is very good very practical, I will collect up, hope you can also pay attention to my web site, thank you very much!
Wow! After all I got a weblog from where I know how to really get useful information concerning my study and knowledge.
