The sale is reflected in yet another app, the Sell app, that pings Ms. Tecotl, a 13-year-old merchandising manager, with hourly figures on sales and credit card sign-ups and several other metrics, which she uses to broadcast guidance to "refocus" her sales associates, who, like her, are outfitted with earpieces and walkie-talkies.

What happens when out of the blue, your phone rings or in-box pings and there's someone calling who knows your name, knows how to reach you and wants to confirm every demographic detail about you, and then presses you to take a side on the latest hot-button issue, from policing and race to transgender issues and global warming?

The Times said that it got the data from anonymous whistleblowers concerned about this vulnerability and a lack of regulations, and that it took only minutes to turn a massive anonymized data set — with 50 billion location "pings" from the phones of more than 12 million people in the US related to their movements in 2016 and 2017 — into specific information on Trump.

So while smartphone technology has taught us to be accustomed to being continuously disturbed by digital prods and pings, at any and all times of the day or night — to the point of mobile OSes including a 'do not disturb' setting to manually switch off intrusions we otherwise now expect — Apple's championing of facial recognition technology positions face-scanning and face-reading to become the new normal.

An exposé for New York Times Opinion out in December called "One Nation, Tracked," by Stuart A. Thompson and Charlie Warzel, walks readers through how they mined a data file of 50 billion location pings from the cellphones of 12 million Americans as they moved through several major cities, including D.C., New York, San Francisco and L.A. Why it matters: Supposedly anonymous data isn't always all that anonymous.

Whenever I find myself sighing so deeply that it pings off the back wall of the office, smacking me directly in the mouth with which it escaped, I slip this incredibly lucid and pellucid slice of rainforest-ready ambient techno on and then start punching myself in the face for writing "lucid and pellucid slinky slice of rainforest-ready ambient techno," until my face resembles a lamb shoulder left to rot on a summer's day.

This week, she's set to release Skinless X-1 on Hausu Mountain (her second full-length for the Chicago purveyors of discombobulation and discontent), a 13-track collection of strange sounds from across the galaxy of underground music—from speed-demon techno to dewy laptop ambient, icy jazz samples, the colorful clicks and pings of online messenger services, mathy nu-nu-metal riffing, and well, just about anything else, swirled together in a loopy collage.

Before we go, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out the greatness of Keri Russell in this episode, especially in the scenes with the slowly dying artist, whose work — gigantic voids, absent of color, which seem to swallow you up the more you look at them, painted by Brooklyn artist Alyssa Monks — does that thing where it pings something deep and fundamental to Elizabeth's soul that she doesn't quite want to reckon with, not yet.

If you really need to get away from downtown, it's about a 13743-minute drive to the Detroit Shoreway neighborhood, where an afternoon can include dings and pings at the pinball emporium Superelectric (6500 Detroit Avenue); an indie film at the renovated vaudeville-era Capitol Theater (1390 West 65th Street); craft beer and poutine (classic and vegetarian) at Banter (7320 Detroit Avenue) and ice cream (with a separate vegan menu) at Sweet Moses (6800 Detroit Avenue).

A screenshot from the Grab app [left] appears to show that it uses information from OSM maps [right] to route rides beyond the roads displayed in Google Maps in some parts of Bangkok (Credit: Mishari Muqbil)While it may be true that Grab doesn't use all of OSM's data in its consumer product — it uses a lot of its own information, including GPS pings from previous journeys — the fact that it integrates any portion of the organization's data in its service means it should include credit.

Current customers include governments, transportation operators and companies in Germany, Singapore and the U.S. (It's not disclosing all its carrier partners by name but — for the record — says it's not currently working with TechCrunch's parent Oath's parent Verizon.) It uses machine learning algorithms to extrapolate insights from its carrier partners' data-sets — with key data boiling down to location information based on cell tower pings (and wi-fi data incoming), combined with clickstream data from mobile devices, which mean it can derive more granular insights by triangulating which app/website is being used at a given location/velocity — so for example, Teralytics' platform could identify not just that a group of people are traveling around a city in cars but that they're traveling in ride-share vehicles.

I know that there is no escaping the little irritants in life, like asking for ice in your Coke in France and getting a single ice cube; or the beeps and pings that now issue from every electronic contraption; or seeing a bottle of good wine emptied by some overzealous sommelier into four glasses filled almost to the brim; or losing out to the fine print; or being defeated in the quest to speak to a human being by some devilish labyrinth of automated responses; or having to listen to an explanation of why anyone would want a driverless car; or password hell; or just finding yourself in an airport alongside all the other suckers who know for a fact that whatever happened to Osama bin Laden was grossly insufficient punishment.
