I take my phone with me into the forest when I go to water tomatoes at my secret tomato growing spot. the phone is connected to data all the time. Can TEA (tomato enforcement administration) trace my location using GPS and find the route where I moved? If so, what can I do to prevent it? I would hate to lose my tomatoes.

    Someone? Sorry to say, the amount of people that would have access to that GPS info would horrify you. Not to mention the types of people they are and the groups that they represent.

    Private companies, private citizens, government personnel and agencies.

    There was a guy that was arrested because the local police saw that he liked something on Facebook and was able to track down his location because his phone was connected to his home wifi.

    All the government needs is a reason and a warrant for it to be used against you, and often, they can still look if they want, they just can’t use it against you until the warrant is obtained.

    Can people track your phone? Does a bear crap in the woods?

    Look up a phone faraday cage
