[00:05:23] KnownSyntax No I’m the one in the vehicle lmao
[00:10:57] KnownSyntax Oh why? Because that is their business plan. They wrap vehicles with ads, and then pay us to drive around or in certain spots. This was for the Superbowl, so then the advertisee can see they got a shitload of impressions (they use a blue tooth dongle to track device IDs).
[00:11:29] KnownSyntax Shit I meant you said “where” at first. Blah
[00:34:56] newton all good that's interesting info anywa
[00:34:59] newton anyway*
[00:35:11] newton so the driver has a bluetooth dongle that collects device id's as you drive?
[01:12:39] KnownSyntax Yes, I have a small bluetooth dongle that's self powered, that is connected to my phone which scans on a low power frequency for bluetooth signals and grabs the device ID.
[01:13:16] KnownSyntax It's very similar to how those digital billboards on the side of the highways work. They use low frequency bluetooth or wifi to be able to report back who saw what ad even though they flip through many all of the time
[01:15:50] KnownSyntax I just do it for free easy money. $50-100/hr if they need a group of similarly wrapped cars in a location. Otherwise it's about $8/day of normal driving that I do that I earn.
[20:14:12] newton that's pretty interesting. I didn't know those vehicles/signs tracked impressions via bluetooth!
[20:14:27] newton do you know if they factor in impression data to determine pricing too?
[22:32:04] Louis KnownSyntax so they pay you to wrap your car?
