I have a friend who uses an electronic key fob to enter and exit his apartment building. The fob isn’t metal, but it grants access electronically.
He occasionally engages in private activities.
My question is: Does this key fob log every entry/exit? He’s cautious with cell phones and leaves them at home, but wonders if the key fob could potentially cause problems.

Depends on how they have set it up but in the ideal it will have be individually linked to a user. Iv heard of cheep complex managers just setting each fob to the same internal id. Meaning you can’t deactivate a fob or track the users. If anything it would be the same as CCTV on the lobby and public spaces of a complex. I would doubt that you would need it to exit as most doors need to let you out without resistance. This is possibly a fight between security and privacy. The other residence in the complex are more concerned with unwanted entries.
