          A series of usually squares arranged in a pattern. Can sometimes be other shapes like Civilisation games.

            Re: other shapes, they have to be tesselations of repeating regular polygons. I would refuse to call the one on the right a grid:

            And this one is right out:

            Edit: I have been informed that the Escher tesselation pictured is in fact a grid and am now in a foul mood.

      if you’re trying to go off-grid in that way, you gotta give up home internet altogether. you’re always trackable by your ISP.

          The device in your pocket connects to an ISP, who is also your cellular carrier. And it connects constantly, advertising itself to the local transmission towers, even when the phone is “turned off”. Your ISP/cellular provider always knows where your phone is, unless it’s disconnected from power or out of range.
