[QUOTE="HailTheLeaf:426648"]from http://www.alternet.org/rights/36151/ Your mobile phone lets companies and the government know where you are, even when you're not making a call. If you are one of the more than 200 million Americans with a cell phone nestled in your pocket, authorities may be able to find you any time day or night--even if you never make or receive a call. You know the Verizon ad where a lockstep crowd personifies the network that accompanies its customer everywhere? Well, within that seemingly friendly horde, a high-tech Big Brother is lurking. Most people know that when they make a mobile call--during a 911 emergency, for example--authorities can access phone company technology to pin down their location, sometimes to within a few feet. A lesser-known fact: Cell phone companies can locate you any time you are in range of a tower and your phone is on. Cell phones are designed to work either with global positioning satellites or through "pings" that allow towers to triangulate and pinpoint signals. Any time your phone "sees" a tower, it pings it. https://secure.aclu.org/site/SPageServer?pagename=DTT_petition2&JServSessionIdr012=auxkfwz421.app25a[/QUOTE]
