I have been screaming about this exact scenario for years now and I have not been able to get a single person to take it seriously. People leave such huge chunks of identity info online, it would be trivial to target someone with a detection package that could easily fit on a drone.
There's no real viable automatic defense options and for the life of me I feel it is only time before some rancid redneck terrorist does this.
