I just heard an engineer describing how phones are doing something new 
now in tracking people.  Some phones today (probably android and apple)
are continuing to track you after you turn the phone off and store the
data on your phone.  When you turn them back on, the phone then sends 
the tracking data to a server.  The only way to defeat this is to put  
your phone into a faraday bag, most that don't work.

in the greater context of everything in their surveillance arsenal that's
tracking everything and everyone universally (globally, worldwide) at all 
times, phones, even old-fashioned landlines (vulnerable to wiretaps since
the horseless carriage https://duckduckgo.com/?q=pen+trap+trace+telegraph)
anything wireless or connected to any source of power is surely monitored
continuously . . . the only good news is that the only thing they've ever 
cared about is what the bible calls "cupidity", the star-crossed marriage
of vanity and avarice, so anything that is not that is not on their radar
