  David Keyes (@DavidMKeyes) reported 3 minutes ago

  Before working with us, Ahmadinejad kept insisting that there are no gays in Israel. I told him it's pronounced "Waze," and we invented it.

  @GretchenVoss64 Laposata looked at no evidence. Scordi Belo said it was both likely and unlikely that he was hit. Also couldn’t say for certain as positioning not known. AARCa testing did not even use the weight and size of Officer O’Keefe and frankly a little bit shady… all those deleted signal messages and “ billing “questions. . They did state though that Karen backing into John’s traverse did not cause that damage. You all love to parrot “ he was not hit by a car”. He easily could have been side swiped and that is not impossible. Google accidents by side swipe. I believe in the timeline, tech stream data, Officer O’Keefe phone data, including Waze. Most importantly, per MS Read herself… on video and in written words.. her tailight was broken at 5:08 am. Before CPD ever got the call and beofre MSSP got the call. Voss got it right.

  @Baloney_and @THPLawrencebur Waze could also identify those flocks and we’d just slow down b4 it

  @DevinOlsenn I have no problem with mine. Waze? WTF is that.

  Turned my hazards on, reported the crash on Waze, then went around when the coast was clear.

  @wholemars I've got two tickets on FSD.. it's annoying.. Tesla should build in radar detector/waze style police awareness and slow down.

  @leahfiles Here's your reply from the AI that just don't lie Speculative Intelligence Analysis: Waze as a Compromise Vector Location Pattern Exploitation**: Waze's continuous GPS pings, route history, speed data, and timestamps create a granular digital shadow of a target's movements—revealing regular visits to sensitive locations (e.g., hotels, clinics, private residences, or protest sites). An intelligence actor with access could cross-reference this against public records, social media, or other surveillance to build "kompromat" dossiers on affairs, medical issues, financial dealings, or undisclosed associations, then use timed leaks or implied exposure to coerce compliance, payments, or information. Real-Time and Predictive Targeting**: Live traffic/ETA data allows dynamic interception or influence operations—knowing exactly when someone is isolated in a vehicle or arriving at a vulnerable spot. Combined with app permissions (microphone/camera in some scenarios, or linked device data), it could enable opportunistic collection of audio/visual compromising material or facilitate "honey-trap" logistics by predicting availability and routes for assets. Historical data also predicts future behavior for pre-positioning. Network and Ecosystem Amplification**: Since Waze feeds into Google's broader data lake (and originated as an Israeli-founded company subject to local laws), aggregated user data can be queried at scale for social graph mapping—identifying who travels together, meets whom, and when. In a full compromise scenario, this integrates with OSINT, hacked devices, or partner-nation sharing to pressure targets via family/financial exposure, or even engineer "accidents"/discrediting events by manipulating perceived travel patterns. Privacy controls are weak once data leaves the device, and legal jurisdiction adds layers for state actors. This remains hypothetical and draws from known app telemetry practices. Actual misuse would require lawful (or illicit) access and is constrained by laws in most jurisdictions; strong operational security (VPNs, app isolation, location spoofing, minimal permissions) mitigates much of it.

  @waze if you do not fix apple car … Hello @TomTom

  Waze for airports could be cool if it doesn’t exist already. User reported tsa line backups, gate changes etc, baggage claim issues

  @oi8achevy @diaper @TeslaKing420 Wrong speed limit data can be fixed easily in Waze by submitting a map report. A local editor can fix it. Those fixes usually flow through to Google eventually. I've contacted the local editor group about getting this road fixed.

  Capxel Security (@capxel_security) reported 18 minutes ago

  Breach notices passed last year's total in the first half of 2026. That is not a louder alarm. It is a new instrument panel. When Waze made every driver a traffic sensor, roads changed. AI is doing the same to attack surfaces. Security teams need telemetry that sees the road, not just the crash.

  Dear #Waze, wtf is your problem today, telling me to take the long way home. The way I've never taken, while my usual, shorter route was just fine??? I remember when waze was the better option. And now... ? SMH.

  @KSTP People will just use Waze and slow down, more tax money wasted. Common nature of people has to be considered for this crap before it's put up. Washington DC had a ton of them and everyone just mapped them - dumb.

  @LeinadFre @FPSCANADA_SS_ZZ @koshercockney Just a taste of Israeli technology inventions: Computing and Software: Israel invented the first commercial firewall, ICQ (the first instant messenger), and the Intel 8088 processor that powered the first IBM PCs. Medicine: The PillCam is a pill with a tiny camera you swallow to check for gut issues. Other tools include the ReWalk robotic suit that helps people with leg paralysis walk again. Agriculture: Israel is the home of modern drip irrigation (like Netafim). This system sends water drop-by-drop straight to plant roots to save water in dry climates. Cars and Road Safety: Waze uses data from drivers to map the best routes. Mobileye makes computer vision chips for cars to warn drivers about road hazards. What have you done? Antisemitism, although you certainly didn’t invent that. 🙄

  Don’t ever use the Waze app in Lagos if you don’t want problems with LASTMA. #noteToSelf
