Some of these are only vaguely related, but great communities.
It's far from the only source of this data, and yes it can be used to geolocate you: https://hackers-arise.com/osint-tracking-the-suspects-precise-location-using-wigle-net/
I can't find a link now, but I remember seeing an article in the past about watching for what networks someone's laptop checks to see if they are available (saved networks it auto-joins) and using them to determine likely physical locations it is commonly located in.
Acording to the link you provided, I'd need an SSID or MAC address to find an AP's location. Assuming I never leaked my ssid, would it be difficult to find it with my IP or other publicly available info?
I don't know of a way to determine an SSID over the internet from just an IP, no. I'd either need to sniff traffic from your machine or run software on your machine to get the information to then lookup in one of the maps/databases.
Good. That makes me feel safer. Thank you ♥️
You will need to take care of the neighbors, they know...
