Wow the picture detracted so much from the article no one even cares for the most part about the ACTUAL issue. The issue is, the government wants to be able to track ALL cell phone users and who they called. Why I ask? If most people are law abiding, are they not entitled to privacy? Perhaps Its nice to be able to go to the store and buy a cell phone like a walkie talkie and have some privacy about the matter. Who really cares? But the government is going to use this as yet another way to remove privacy from us, citing the bombing as a reason. Riddle me this batman: Any smart terrorist is going to find a way around any method used to track them. Why make the honest Americans loose liberties for it? And as for the dumb ones, those arent the ones to worry about. Hell, I can sit with a fairly inexpensive scanner and monitor the 430 - 470 frequency range and find several methods to communicate without being tracked, but go a long ways: Method 1: LTR Trunking systems. Not going into detail, but one may use these easily and buy a 700 pro series radio and talk for potentially hundreds of miles. This would be potentially illegal, but if they are a criminal or a terrorist, what does it matter if its legal or not.
