   Lol. Your name is a MAC address? I can see why you'd not want to disclose   
   that.   
      
   Your zip code is also "you". Is a database of zip codes that all online   
   retailers have access to equally a serious privacy risk?

   Understandably, you don't want to share your home address to the wider   
   internet. We have additional information so can link you with the address.

   Your "tutorial" was simply a lock-up table. There is no tracking involved.   
   Like the majority of your tutorials, it was superfluous. Sufficient   
   instructions already existed on the github.

   Ha ha ha! This is a new low for you. You're plagiarising other people's   
   code now?

   No it doesn't. The github script (not your code) only reports the location   
   currently in the db. There is no history.

   Thanks for confirming your babyish attitude. Rather than rise to the   
   challenge, you deflect and attack.   
      
   What you don't understand, because you're not a scientist, is that a study   
   worthy of publication - albeit as a preprint - is a serious amount of work.   
   Just because they were able to do it, as a proof of concept, does not mean   
   any Shmo can do the same "trivially".   
      
   Unless you can demonstrate in detail a search of all floridians who moved   
   from california in the last six months only using their BSSIDs, I call   
   bullshit on your claims. You're fear mongering.   
      
   Having said that, it is crazy that Apple don't limit calls to their WPS db   
   like google do.
