Imagine if that guy's wife saw his location by his cell... He would have a lot of explaining to do...

maybe that was just based on the cell he was in. the cell density is quite high in bigger towns, but really low on the countryside.

I think in my parents town there are <= 5 cells, and here are 16000 ppl living

Its gonna be like the what the Russian Mafia was doing here in Canada a few years ago with atm cards. Someone is gonna find a way to duplicate the scanners and then all thay have to do is just give ya a quick scan when they walk by ya. Kiss yer identity good by. I hope they give ya a kiss before they f**k ya.

Aspirin, your knowledge of that stuff tends to suggest that some day you went and fetched more information that a "normal" GSM user would...

Neterlands first public GSM locator.

http://www.gsmlocator.nl/

All cell phone owners are publicaly trace-able. !!!!!!!!


*Note.
The site has some problems handling all the requests.
So i got a "Sorry we are to bussy right now, try again later today" because of there enormous success.
It went "on Air" today so there is much traffic from curious ppl at there first day. It'll probably stay slow for a few cos this locator is quite popular so to seem.

*note 2
The site is in dutch but you only have to fillout the number you want to locate and your own email address to where te result is sent.


So be aware

[HangFire]

I really don't think a site like that should be public/legal.

[Cpl. Shrike]

Heh yep.
They have changed the page a bit. There is now a possibity to opt-out your number.
Which is a nasty thing also.

I don;t like it anymore than you do. But it seems to be legal.
But now that it is comming in the media spotlights politics might do something about it.

gotta take a look if I can find stefan's mobile phone number

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

Hehe.
Reminds me of the day when I had a Sagem. The only mobile I ever had. One old one. Only able to link at 900MHz. Unable to do SMS. But what was good with it is that with a MAX232 circuit to transform the +12/-12 from the COM port to TTL +5V you could reprogram it from your computer...
I could tell what I did with that phone but that's not very legal hehe
