Or go talk to the other person out in the middle of a field somewhere without your phones. And I'm not even 100% sure anymore that that would work. Like, maybe the lanternflies are bugged (pun intended).

The bird surveillance system is always watching. Remember birds aren't real!

Flying tape recorders.

Well I'd suggest a forest instead but anyway depends how you get there :

  • look up online how? there might be now a path on a server to your target destination
  • disconnect phone in a pattern that's usually not how you use it? more surveillance
  • public transport tracking, plate tracking until you leave the city
  • rough estimation on your direction then follow up with drones tracking you, if it's 100m high it's hard to notice

... anyway, ending the paranoia comment ;)

Don't forget facial recognition! Then just in case you decided to wear a mask, gait recognition!
