   You trolls make the most absurd arguments that only you would concoct.   
   You actually believe someone said their MAC address was their name.   
      
   If I said I had a penicillin pill in my pocket, you'd claim it's just a   
   pill because your brain can't fathom what you can do with that pill.   
      
   I realize neither you nor Frank has the IQ necessary for even something as   
   base as a college education, so I find it disturbing I have to explain   
   this.   
      
   Your absurd arguments are backed up by exactly zero security professionals.

   Jesus Christ. This is what happens when you deal with people with a low IQ.   
      
   The arguments from you and Frank are so absurd that I don't have the   
   patience to explain to you that a pill in my pocket can do more things than   
   just be a pill.   
      
   To your low IQ brain, and to that of Frank, a pill in my pocket is just a   
   small object. If I say 'I have a pill in my pocket,' that doesn't tell you   
   much. If that pill is penicillin, suddenly it has a specific power.   
      
   To your low IQ brains, you and Frank, it's just a white pill.   
   Nothing more. Nothing less.   
      
   Who is that strange but you.   
   Both of you understand nothing.

   All you'd need is my BSSID and you'd have the coordinates to my bedroom.

   Huh? Again & again, I admit I have trouble dealing with people like you &   
   Frank whose IQ is so low, no college would waste their time admitting you.   
      
   That python script can look up any number of BSSIDs, Chris.   
   You can't fathom that?   
      
   What is so strange with you that you can't think a script can have multiple   
   BSSIDs input into it in a list (which I showed how to do in the tutorial)?   
      
   Who is that strange?   
   Nobody, right?   
      
   I don't have the people skills necessary to explain to people with such a   
   low IQ that they can't understand you can feed a list of BSSIDs to a python   
   script.

   Jesus Christ. You and Frank have such a low IQ that you claim that   
   everything posted is plagiarized. What kind of strange person does that?   
      
   I wrote the wrapper in the tutorial Chris that does the BSSID lookup.   
   The GitHub code isn't that wrapper. It's just the CLI.   
      
   That you don't understand that is hard for me to explain becuase your IQ is   
   so low as to require people skills I don't possess to explain something   
   that trivial to you.   
      
   All your opinions are absurd, Chris.   
   Your IQ is so low you can't understand a wrapper around a CLI for example.   
      
   Who is that stupid?

   The script is trivial, Chris.   
      
   Your IQ is too low to understand that "tracking" is just running the script   
   a few times. It's shocking that I have to explain something that trivial.   
      
   Here's a wrapper to track the moving location of any given set of BSSIDs.   
   This is a permanent record a malefactor can sell over & over to bad guys.
