This should not shock you at all. Anything you have that transmits (in any way, even trying to listen can pop you) can be tracked. Simple as that. If I were building a surveillance company I would be tracking EVERYTHING. It's not even that hard and most data can be compressed text so it takes far less space than you think it would.

>Most people would never imagine that the innocuous tire pressure monitoring system (TPMS) in their vehicles could be used to track their movements. But, as with many things digital, it turns out the feature, designed for vehicle safety and maintenance, can also expose unintended signals that enable precisely that capability.

Yes the signal can be received and used to track a vehicle, but the power output of a TPMS sensor is very low and there will be significant trouble catching the signal from the noise at a distance more than a few feet. But just the same, all the electronics in your car can be used for tracking from their normal EMF emissions. Same goes for all your electronic devices. We live in a surveillance state and you cannot escape it now.

Yep, though if you are driving past a stop light or something there is already plenty of power/tech/etc to try to tag you. That way, even in the future if the camera's are down they can still catch your sensors if that system is not down.

Everything is in depth.
