Cell Phone Tracking In the UK

jvlb writes "The BBC reports on cell phone tracking systems now available in Britain. The correspondent addresses the privacy and security issues that ensue." From the article: "With more and more children owning mobile phones, special attention needs to be given to who can track them. If you are not a genuine parent or guardian, the code requires location services to check that both the tracker and the person being tracked can prove they are consenting adults. Mr Macleod says: 'The person that is to be located has to demonstrate to the service provider they are at least 16 years old.'"

    Hey there, unlike you fucknose fagget liberals I served for this country and our freedom and you guys fuckin say were all stupid well I tell you now that I am not stupid, i went to college and by fuck i was the best quarterback they ever had. despite you say we are to blame for all of americas fuckin problems, were the ones who stopped this country from bein takin over by fuckin soviet yellas. I am sick to death of this shit and i think some of you faggets are commies to! McCarthy was right with the fucking red's he pointed out and I think I am to. I killed at least a dozen reds I know what you guys look like. Get the fuck out of this country if you dont like bush, because he is just tryin to stop fuckin allah from taking it over. Maybe if one day our government stops bein filled with fuckin pussie liberals, well be able to take real action like australia and shut you fuckin faggots up. anti-sediation laws are the last call so we can fight for our freedom without faggot muslim communists from fuckin it all up!
