Great news! The Waze Beacons Program is in the works and constantly expanding.
The Waze Beacons Program is the first scalable, affordable solution in the world to power navigation in tunnels. Currently available in select tunnels throughout Pittsburgh, Haifa, Israel, Paris and Rio de Janeiro – seamless navigation is available to Wazers underground simply by turning on Bluetooth functionality.An error occurred while saving the comment death Bye post commented

these also provide much of the desired social capability without relying upon the rife privacy-violations farce known as "social! networking
many savvy consumers have no wish to whore their privacy for interweb bobbles (Google, Facebook, twitter, foursquare, et al)
woefully there is an inappropriate tolerance of privacy erosion
xmpp OTR may help safeguard some waze communication
