A possible abuse that hasn't been mentioned, or I have just missed it, is the ability to use any cell phone as a microphone and as a method of locating you. The FBI in a mafia case used roving wire taps without the cell phone owners permission to listen to mafia members that just happened to be in the area of the mafia members. The potential for abuse is extremely disturbing to me.
