This article on Achieve 3000 describes a controversy regarding cell phone companies that track and store location data recorded by users' smartphones. Which side do you support in this matter? Explain your position.
I believe that its imposing for these cell phone providers to be looking at your GPS positions. I also think that its creepy that they know every place you have been in a hole year. If you were a CIA agent and this information was stolen it could be a matter of national security.
I don't believe that cell phone companies should be able to track and store location data recorded by phones. I think that is not right because that information could be hacked and people don't want the wrong people to have that information. It doesn't seem right that they know the places you go.
I think its a good idea so people will be able to find criminals entering secret locations, allowing the police to arrest multiple criminals at a time. also there is not much one can get out of someone's location other than them entering a blocked off area. If someone were to get that information they couldn't do much with it, except know where you live which wouldn't affect a criminal who wouldn't care who lives at a house. A normal person would also have no interest.
I think it is a bad idea to track and store the information on our phones. Its a bad idea because, who's is going to be looking at it and why do they need to our every move. No one wants there infomation stole.
I already knew that my phone company can see my texts, but I never knew about the location thing, that's a little too far. I never liked knowing that my phone company can see my private information, but I just don't understand how location would really matter. If terrorists where to discuss ceratin matters over a phone, it would kind-of be necessary to be able to see those text messages but Location is totally unnecessary.
I would have to say that i don’t really like the idea that you are being watched and followed all the time by people that you don’t even now. Also what if there’s a creep working at one of the phone companies they could track were you are and could hunt you down. I also don’t really understand why they need to now were you are every second i mean i would be helpful if you were kidnaped but otherwise it’s just creepy. I mean they should be checking what people are texting to one another or like what they are searching on the internet instead. Knowing where people are is completely unnecessary and just plain out creepy!
I think that the cell phone businesses should not be able to track the location of your phone because, that is an invasion of privacy. But on the flipside I think that the police should be able to track you because they could maybe catch a criminal
I think that it is wrong for cellphone companies to track the location of your phone. The question is why would they need to do that and it is invading peoples privacy. If they asked the people before they tracked then that would be ok. Also it might be a good idea because they can track your phone is it was stolen or lost.
