I'll be at the track for the last race weekend LRRS #676. Feel free to stop on by I was pulling from your annoying little diatribe about how they thought american women (you) to be whores. Here's a little quote of yours to refresh your memory " One of them was my boyfriend (i.e. i was fukkin him) for a little while until I realized they considered north american women as "whores" because we (we includes yourself as far as i know)sleep with guys before marriage" Maybe your different from me but i have slept with every girlfriend i have had since i was 16 so you do the math on that one. Besides i don't know why your all pissed off. I didn't say being dumb was bad. Hell 95% of the planet is dumb so that actually puts you in the majority

Just a reminder: I will be at the track for the last race weekend of the year (thats one week from now). I don't hide behind a computer screen. so feel free to come and slap me, just remember i don't hit women but i will fill baloons with piss and throw them at you

That's called assumptions (or false interpretations), and you're wrong. I should have said I was dating him. 3 weeks is not really what you'd consider a boyfriend.

I guess so.

Lucky you. I guess I didn't have the same luck... (I was tempted to say "who's the whore?" but that wouldn't be very nice! ) I'm done here.

My point is: The goverment is not some super human agency that can do anything and find anyone in a matter of seconds like TV has made it out to be, it is run by human beings just like you and me, some are not any smarter then you or me, and some and even dumber..

I think at 3 weeks your really just still at the 'someone im banging' stage, not really fair to say dating yet either.

A lady got lost recently. ( In the woods behind where i work- lots of land w/ cross country ski trails) She was hiking and got lost, called 911 and they found her from her cell phone. It was the local sheriff that found her.

Soooo -

They can track you easily with your cell phone.

If your phone is set to privacy, it is nearly impossible for the police to get the phone company to tell them where someone is.. It's the phone company that does it, the police do not have a gps that tracks people sell phones, it has to be done by the service provider, and they don't just hand out that info.. I can't remember all the details but there was a case not too long ago where the police were trying to find someone, and they call there service provider, and they would not tell them where they were.. The phone companys and you, are protected by the Privacy Act ..

RIIIIGHT - Privacy Act....... Meaning 'We used to spy on you without you knowing. Now weve made it law"

[richw]

The rip off phone company wants to charge you for your GPS data.

They seem to let you turn it off...but why

They also want to try to charge research for GPS how many of their customers visit or pass by location so and so. Then the realestate vultures can raise the price of selected prices.

It depends on provider, but here is Verizon's (CDMA) take on it:

As for Cingular (GSM) , they have clocking and location triangulation occuring realtime on their towers for the gsm signalling...it only takes an extra few seconds a request for them to report where a call is being made from. The 'big brother' advantage here is that its actually recorded in transaction logs and can be recalled, so nothing needs to be 'activated' they just need to know the time of the last call (which the company can also obviously dig up in a matter of seconds).

I used to work at a company that built a CDMA/GSM/GPRS switch.

What the phone company CSRs, etc.. can do on the system and what the police/government can do are totally different.

Most of those systems have a "lawful intercept" switch that can be turned on with special keys. Only the police/government can turn it on, even developing the system we couldn't turn it on.

Once they turn it on they can eavesdrop on you all they want and all the location functions can be turned on. Locating a cell phone does not even require using the new GPS technology. If the cell phone is in radio range of more then one tower they can get a pretty darn good idea of where you are. ISTR this is required by law, and it's probably been beefed up significantly since I worked on it.

Your "privacy" features are a joke when this kind of stuff gets turned on. Best bet is to turn the phone off or throw it away if you're a criminal. It works for Osama.

Cell phones, credit cards, cars (On-Star anyone), and probably 1000 other things in our daily lives are conveniences. Nobody is forcing you to use them.

Is big brother out there – Yes. Google maps shows just a hint of the satellite capability. The newer GPS systems can locate to within 1 mm.

If you are concerned about big brother listening to you talk on your cell phone, throw the thing away. If you don't want to be monitored with video surveillance while you are out in the public spaces, avoid cities and places you know they exist. If you don't want your movements and spending habits monitored use cash. Use the postal system for correspondences – avoid computers. Is it possible to not be monitored? – Yes, practical or convenient – Not really.

I hate to tell you this but the GPS system hasn't changed, still the same system of satellites

accuracy to a mm has always been possible since the beginning of availability, even before they turned off the SA code

I was using Trimble units back in 1988 that gave us that accuracy with longer observations and post processing

todays receivers just make it easier and quicker and don't cost $250k +

[benVFR]

Just be thankful it's not THAT bad here.

Last time I went to Europe (London) was almost 8 years ago.

Even way back then it was WAY worse there. There were video cameras everywhere... it was really weird.

And I know it's gotten a ton worse in the meantime.

I was talking more about tracking GPS enabled phones that are not in use..
