    The fact they’re able to do this is no surprise to me. The fact they’re able to do this on very easily accessible equipment to that degree of accuracy is scary impressive.

    While this obviously has huge consequences for privacy, the part that concerns me most is its usage in development of deep fakes. I worry about the consequences of no longer being able to distinguish real video evidence from deliberate manipulation.

      Imagine Amazon or Google working out which devices in your home are static, then using them to map out your household with their built in wifi.

      Yes I am worried about that too , but what we can do about it? The more I think about this the less I feel the power to do something against surveillance and what it get into my nerve the most is that the big majority of people just dont care that every day we are losing privacy and our freedom. Just look at the UK trying to pass a bill to have backdoor on encrypted communications.

        I guess you could design every room as its own faraday cage with separate access points against this specific threat.
