  • Abstract
    Imagine when you sit on the same train everyday commuting to work. You see the same people. What do you know about these people? Do they move in similar social circles to you? In this paper we describe how technology can be used in evasive ways to obtain information about some people who you come into contact with. We describe how to implement the technology as well as highlight issues of personal privacy.
