Technology: October 2007 Archives
These stories are from 2006 so I'm sure a lot of you knew this already, for those who didn't, myself included, they're pretty interesting.
A friend of mine was telling me about an argument he was having with his dad who believe the FBI could track anybody using the GPS abilities on every cell phone. While it's not surprising that a cell phone can be enabled with GPS, it was surprising to me that all phones are already GPS'd and are trackable by the FBI. Check out this link.
Once I found this out by doing a simple search with Google, my friend told me about another argument he was having with his dad. His dad was telling him that any cell phone, whether it is in use or not, can be listened to, again by the FBI. What? A cell phone that is not in use can be used to listen to you and your conversations as a trasmitter device? Another Google search lead me to this.
Paranoia runs deep, doesn't it?
