TIL about iOS shortcuts. This shortcut is pretty cool. But the nearest airplane comes up as private and now I’m paranoid it is an FBI surveillance plane when it is probably just going to/from the local small field airport.

With regards to the FBI not caring about your legal activities, I recommend you look into the FBI blackmailing of Martin Luther King Jr. and COINTELPRO more generally. Their historic behavior doesn't exactly warrant trust.
In the case dragnet surveillance, you will constantly become a suspect in investigations based on where you were, what you look like, etc.
If your data doesn't exist in some database, at best you won't be caught up in a dragnet investigation. And at worst, your lack of data saves you from expensive court battles and imprisonment over something you didn't do.
