This started in a Zoom call for a Chicago project team, and everyone got calm in the most suspicious way.

This started when the person who warned about the risk is being blamed for slowing things down. I tried to keep it normal and failed. This was when a location app showed the wrong place, with my partner and the friend they were visiting. The blue dot snapped between two streets. I can explain the policy side and still think it was gross.

Checking safety without converting a glitch into suspicion. I did not say that part out loud. The location matched an old cached visit. My calls made a normal evening feel surveilled. Now the transcript is in the workspace, and legal wants the timeline by noon. I refreshed the map until the battery warning appeared.

Maybe I am using this to justify myself. Technical uncertainty amplifies existing mistrust.
