I tracked an NYC Subway Rider’s Movements with an MTA ‘Feature’

Posted on August 30, 2023 by pogowasright.org

Joseph Cox reports:

In the mid-afternoon one Saturday earlier this month, the target got on the New York subway. I knew what station they entered the subway at and at what specific time. They then entered another station a few hours later. If I had kept monitoring this person, I would have figured out the subway station they often start a journey at, which is near where they live. I would also know what specific time this person may go to the subway each day.

During all this monitoring, I wasn’t anywhere near the rider.
