You're kidding, but you don't think that once word gets around some desperately poor region that tracker device == free phone calls, people aren't going to try and kill the bird to get the tracker?
If you think that's not likely, you've got a lot more faith in humanity than I do.

- sergiotapia 8y agoI read they still rape virgins to cure HIV in some regions. I doubt they'll stop stealing SIM cards.
