I’m timid about this and might be late to a party where others already had this idea, so please, no haters.

I can’t get over how facile and stupid the identification of LM was at a McDoballs. This is someone who fell off the entire grid for three months??

Just asking… but couldn’t an organization trying to conceal its reach and inevitability track a fella… and then… force an identification?

I do not have any idea about details… it’s broad strokes. Could it be? How many other privacy lovers heard about these three months completely off the grid somehow and also wondered… how?

Please pardon if this isn’t the appropriate place but the real theme is privacy. What if the watchers are always watching even when a person might believe they have made themself completely digitally invisible?

    Rest stop/ travel center. Combination Gas station and a couple/few fast food restaurants, depending on the size of the interstate.

    Though considering it’s Altoona, that doesn’t work. He would have gotten off the bus down at the station, and the closest McDonald’s to there is like 4 blocks away
