Word of mouth will always be the best advertizing method. IF the advertizing is good, of course. When people spread the word about something they really believe to be of benefit to themselves, it naturally brings in new customers. And it doesn't matter what the "thing" is either. It could be religion, cars, long-distance, restaurants, or whatever. And since this kind of advertizing costs nothing to the company, they can try maintain lower production costs.
When someone finally gets through to a real person after cursing their way through the system, it will probably be Helga from the old Kremlin Customer Support. She take care of you!
My comment wasn't a blanket statement. I fully realise that there are geniuses in prison but they are few and far between. That's why I said "most are stupid." Thanks for not fully reading my comment.
And yes, I know many stupid criminals. Most of my former high school friends are now in prison and they were stupid in thought and for doing what they did.
And when personal insults get moderated as funny, you know it's time to go to bed.
I'm not putting E911 down. I was just saying that many areas that have cell coverage do not have advanced emergency response systems. That's all.
Since, I have 2 teenage girls and a pre-teen son I would have to say that I would think my kid extremely irresponsible by having an abortion without my knowledge or even having an abortion for that matter. The fact that she or he was sexually active wouldn't shock me too much since my children know that their mother and me were sexually active as teens. My oldest was born before we were married. They know first hand what pre-marital sex can do to people's lives.
Frankly, I wouldn't use this kind of technology unless there was some kind of perceived trouble on my part. But that's only because my kids and I have an understanding about things like that. We have a lot of trust in our relationship. I'm not a paranoid father except when a new boy-friend enters the scene.;-)
In the past, the only way to tell where a person was located while talking on the phone was to detect which cell tower they were connected to. Considering that coverage was several square miles, it wasn't a very good way of tracking someone. However, this method of location has been used by police to solve murders where a person said they were somewhere when they called home after they murdered their spouse.
As long as the "crack" can be placed in a secret decoder ring I'll be happy.
If they're reading Slashdot then they've tried Open Source Software.

Just a few peices of bailin' war oughta do it...
I was going to use Bertha but that would only apply to one of the southern state house customer support lines here in the US.

What about PETAphiles?
Those are people who believe everything the People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals state as fact.
I second the motion.
How will they know where to send the email in the first place?
GoDaddy.com offers a service to hide the registrant's details so that it doesn't show up in the whois listing.
Stop SPAM by sending thousands of emails? That's funny.
I guess we'll have to check again in February when the carbonite thaws and his bandwidth is reset.
If someone would have thought of it, they could have patented the CTRL-ALT-DEL sequence for rebooting a computer.
Shouldn't that read, "Its a Gate's way"?
Nope.
LOL! Yeah, that's it: I "know all". Thanks for letting me know. I'm a better person now because of it.
Seriously, though, just because someone wasn't caught doesn't make them smart. All it means is that they weren't caught.

Sounds like they built upon the proximity games technology.
Proximity Personals: The end result of Technology.
Because E911 is not widely available. Heck, I know of some areas that are just now getting basic 911 service.
Really, why the hell do you think any kidnappers are going to let a kid keep his PHONE on him? You think they're THAT stupid?
Yes. Most criminals are very stupid.In the past, the only way to tell where a person was located while talking on the phone was to detect which cell tower they were connected to. Considering that coverage was several square miles, it wasn't a very good way of tracking someone. However, this method of location has been used by police to solve murders where a person said they were somewhere when they called home after they murdered their spouse.
I whole-heartedly agree with you.
Kids can join the military when they are 16? In the UK?
In the US, they can't legally do any of those things you mentioned. Of course, the "have sex" one depends on the age and sex of the people involved.
