I wonder how Ukraine can mix up the cell signals to prevent them being used as locating beacons without impacting their operation too much.
Could the cell tower ignore items moving past a certain speed unless whitelisted?
GPS stops working above a certain altitude or speed regardless of whitelisting so that backdoors aren’t exploited
This isn't GPS though, I don't think the tower can measure altitude, only distance and speed?
Yeah I was saying that a whitelist is pretty dumb cause Russia could spoof a whitelisted device, or steal one and get its credentials, backdoors are never a good idea
Ah, gotcha.
