- KMag 14y agoWhere do you live that carriers don't keep a history of where your phone has been? Every once in a while I read a news story where a suspect's cell phone was connected to the nearest tower to a dumped body, around the time the coroner thought the body was dumped.
- Zak 14y agoI live in the US, and I'd be surprised if the carriers don't keep such data for a while. That's bad on its own. The part that's extra disturbing is that your government would require it.
- lucb1e 14y agoI still have a hard time believing it, but it seems to be true. It was said in a Dutch documentary about the "panopticum", and it's mentioned in the privacy policy of my carrier.
