Eduroam can be used to identify student protesters

Examples
Date

At a trans rights protest in October 2023, campus security told students occupying a lecture theater at Edinburgh University that they would use the Eduroam wifi to identify them. The university says it has never used wifi data this way, and its security team denies threatening students. However, a FOI requests shows the wifi data can identify users, even after the fact, and may be used in "exceptional circumstances".
