next level would be making an NFC tag or QR code and putting it in my backpack or something, see if people visit it

@kitten We are currently very tempted to obtain a GPS tracker for similar reasons :3

But everything seems to work via intermediaries who then put up the data online somewhere, instead of directly sending the GPS data to a specified server we control. We need good privacy violation, not bad privacy violation...

@that that was something I was looking onto as well (in this case not to publish it online, but as an alternative to Google Maps Timeline). I was looking onto Owntracks to do it through tracking my phone, but I also saw OpenHayStack as some kind of "self-hosted airtag" solution with an ESP32 or something, although it depends on having access to a macOS device

@kitten @that have u considered just picking up WiFi hotspots and using BeaconDB or Positon to turn that into coordinates?

the latter has quite a lot of data, and it can be quite accurate in a lot of scenarios

this does remind me i still need to get around to writing docs and the like for my own self hosted device tracking service neocat_googly_shocked
