My solution so far is a bike rack that blocks my plate from view. Easy enough to feign ignorance and “correct it” in the moment. Flocks database no doubt has an entry for [color][make][model], but at least it’s not associated with me directly through motor vehicle bureau records.
Are you in one of the nice states that doesn’t require front license plates?
Replying to @plateee@piefed.social
I am not, but no one seems to give a shit.

I’m pretty sure based on previous reporting that they will just track you as “blue car with this specific model of bike rack”.
Replying to @ayyy@sh.itjust.works
I am sure of that too. Best I can do is try to avoid linking it to my name.

adding it also logs your phone, earpods, etc signals alongside the car’s data.
