Bruh, did you know that while you’re out here stress-eating Takis and vibing to TikTok sea shanties, the big-brained giga-chads at Customs and Border Protection (aka CBP, aka certified Phone Location Hoarders 🥇) are buying your phone data like it’s resale Jordans? *shocked Pikachu* No cap, the government out here REDEEMING all those sketchy cookies you never cleared and treating your exact location like an epic side quest lootbox. Picture this: somewhere, a CBP agent named ‘Chad’ is watching your 3 a.m. detour to Taco Bell like it’s the Zuck’s version of National Treasure. Like, yes government, I did go to Dunkin’ twice before noon (*donut emoji*), but do you need the GPS-powered play-by-play? It all started when CBP decided the FBI’s ‘find location’ game was too slow, so they just speed-ran it by copping data off mega turbo-surveillance ad auctions. These auctions aren’t even like eBay for millennial dads buying Beanie Babies – we’re talking shadowy robots brawling for the chance to show you another sketchy mobile game. While you swipe left on Candy Crush Clones, your coordinates are getting paper-toweled up like spilled Baja Blast. Meanwhile, on the other side of the internet wall, a WHOLE COUNTRY’S been sent to digital camp with their Wi-Fi grounded, but CBP out here binge-watching your GPS blunders like it’s Netflix. Somewhere, an ad company intern realized the true endgame of their marketing: becoming the villain origin story for literally everyone with a smartphone. And you thought ‘Incognito Mode’ was saving your digital dignity. Bro, the only thing incognito is your hairstyle from 2015 that’s still floating somewhere in the cloud. Let’s not forget Ice Man Ice (aka ICE, not the TikTok rapper) is trying to buy the upgraded version called ‘Webloc’ where they unlock the secret level: NOT just tracking YOU, but ALL your neighbors. Block parties about to get dystopian. Sorry Karen, your HOA violations just became a federal matter (*crying face*). Also, LOL, the Swiss came in with their neutral milk hotel vibes like, “We don’t DO wars, but we will dox you if you Venmoed for anarchist oat milk.” Now every protester has to dodge not only face recognition but also the OPSEC dragon hiding in their LinkedIn connections, all because someone paid Proton Mail with their real-ass debit card. Rookie move *clown face*. IN CONCLUSION: while you’re hitting one ‘Accept Cookies’ after another like you’re at Grandma’s cyber bake sale, remember: the only real privacy left is disabling your phone and moving to the woods to commune with raccoons and get weather updates from pinecones. (Sponsored message: please don’t give the squirrels your Venmo.) Anyways, I gotta go. Need to Google ‘can the IRS see my Finsta’ for… reasons. Peace out, kings and Queens and government data ferrets. SKIBIDI OUT.
