So the city I live in is putting devices on lightpoles to track mobile devices throughout the city. They say its to help gather foot traffic patterns to better plan data. I don't like it. I can't remove it. But I want to make the data useless.<p>How do I generate false data to make this completley useless.
Let me answer your question from an adversarial viewpoint:<p>"Hey boss, I'm looking at our stats and I see a bunch of unusual stuff. "<p>"Like what?"<p>"Well, I see about 100,000 times more MAC addresses than normal. Nothing makes sense."<p>"Here, let me see... Hmm yes, it looks like someone is trying to taint our data."<p>"What do we do, boss?"<p>"Well, let's look at the logs files. It looks like someone sat under the sensor on the corner of Main and 4th between 11am and 12pm with a Linux laptop dumping a bunch of bogus packets. This guy isn't out here sabotaging stuff 24/7. Let's just correlate the MAC addresses on this sensor and see if they appear on the others. If not, we'll delete those rows."<p>"Good idea as usual boss. Let's be glad this attacker didn't have a drone that flew sorties over or sensors while sniffing nearby 802.11 and retransmitting bogus packets."
