Ciao gente, mentre andavo da Zurigo a Basilea, la mia borsa ha aperto un dispositivo lassù nel deposito bagagli. è caduto a pezzi e non sono riuscito a capire cosa fosse. qualcuno può dirmi di cosa si tratta? Sul sito c’è scritto kontakt.io ma dopo aver cercato ulteriormente su Google sembra che si tratti di una specie di dispositivo di localizzazione o qualcosa del genere?

BLE Beacon, could be used for navigation or tracking occupancy.
Not clear what the device does, but it’s most certainly a tracking or surveillance device of some sort
Please stop breaking things.

It’s a beacon. Not sure what exactly it’s used for, but it could be anything from being a presence sensor for conductors, to counting the passengers (or individual Bluetooth devices) to being part of the (horrible horrible) SBB carrier agnostic data network where you can sign into with the app while connecting to the Bluetooth beacon. Freenet or whatever it’s called.
Not scarier than the cameras that are everywhere already, if you’re worried about tracking.
Jaja its fell a part ähä
Did you just rip out and break something you found attached to a train?
Why you just take things apart on a train? Dafuq
why didn’t you go find the zugchef to tell them about the device that “fell apart”? it could be used for all sorts of important things that trains rely on, and surely the SBB employees will know more about that than a bunch of redditors.
