Are Cell Phones Scary? Is a Spy In Your Pocket Scary?

For their defence, it would probably be required to know where you are at all times if they're going to give you the best service possible, but can we come to some sort of agreement that this is just a tiny bit frightening?  Cell phone companies, and people who can either tap into or hack them, know where you are, at all times, as long as you have that thing on and it's on your person.  Between August 31, 2009 to February 28, 2010, a German Politician discovered his cell phone had recorded, and saved, where he was 35,000 times.

If you're a criminal this may also be very annoying, as law enforcement can now track criminals.  Go a bit further and, if you're the paranoid type, really anyone can hack the system and see where you are, which could be a problem for stalking victims.

It's alright.  It's the future.
