Oh my, what are they saying, using our phones with internet and all kinds of networks we're connected to leads to companies tracking us?! WTF :yikes: Who would have thought

How is this news exactly?

 

What do you think, how these red and orange bars get generated, if not with location tracking? It's a form of passive crowdsourcing. ;)

    • That was known from the start for  and will be planned for.   Sadly just the reality of sports in North America. Canada and the US are both huge, a flight from Vancouver to Halifax or from Seattle to Miami is north of five hours. Every sports league in North America has to deal with this kind of travel logistics on the regular, so none of this will seem particularly unusual to a North American player.
    • That’s not a long distance, it’s barely a 2h flight and there is no difference in timezone. Easily doable for fans as well.
