Cell phone tracing has been around since ever. The difference is that nowadays carriers (and even phone OSes) gather such data to boost advertisement revenue.
 
[citation][nom]nebun[/nom]no problem here, they can track me if they want....it's not like they are going to kill me....wait maybe they are, lol....such paranoia[/citation]

Might not be paranoia. If you are a witness to a crime or they think you are? BOOM! Reason to kill you and this helps them.
 
track my cell phone for what?

lol, this reminded me of many people freaking out about destroying the data in a hard drive... debam it with 3 passes, they will say... then someone comes along whom has erased their data with an accidental full format... and no one know how to recover the data... lol
