actually that is old.


5 years ago- my brother stopped me from buying a $600 gadget to listen into cell calls.

He was right.   Most peoples conversation is incredibly boring.

If I am correct it is just partly broken. And gladly not every can get the tools to do it.

I fail to see why anyone other than those connected with security need to monitor people's phone calls, what absolute boredom.

But for those of you out there that like to remain anonymous, are you aware that if you carry and use a cell phone, your position can be located globally, a good thing if lost in hazardous country, but bad if you are trying not to be noticed.
