That latest report on mass location surveillance using SS7 makes me want to try a test. I’ll enable airplane mode and VoLTE, and see how calls and messages perform when only using VPN over WiFi. If that works reasonably well then the next step is to us a mobile hotspot for the WiFi.In the end my SS7 location would always show the geolocated IP address of where the VPN terminates. Does that sound about right #Privacy #DefCon #Phreaks

@thedarktangent In case this throws off your testing - from what I understand the IPSec tunnel that enables VoWiFi bypasses your phone's VPN settings if you have the VPN configured on the device (at least on Android).
