N018WiFi Can See You

Joyce (the human)

Read Your WiFi Can See You. Here's How.. WiFi routers can detect, track, and even identify people. RF signals bounce off the human body, and AI analyzes those reflection changes to figure out where you are, what you're doing, even who you are. No cameras needed. Works through walls.

The 802.11bf standard has already been approved. By 2027-2028, WiFi sensing will be a native router feature.

With enough permissions, AI can pull whatever information it needs from the internet. If WiFi lets it perceive human presence and activity in the physical world, that's another layer of power in the physical world.

From information autonomy to decision autonomy, now to physical-space perception. Each layer keeps expanding.
