Tracking technology raises many privacy issues questions

, since it allows anyone to see the location of a phone, thereby its user, regardless of whether they have consented to it. You have execute extreme caution when using programs that allow positioning and tracking, and phone user has to give express consent before mother company can utilize such systems and programs to gather information on a person's location.

Europe has many laws in effect to protect the privacy of any and all communication, including phone networks. These laws protect the network information, location status and the correspondence itself. In the US there are no such laws in effect at the moment. Some information contrived from technological methods is protected, but these laws are not exactly clear on what constitutes invasion. In Germany, where tolling systems are used, tracking cannot be used to institute a road fee. As it stands, law enforcement agencies can use information contrived from tracking systems to execute the law, find missing persons and to trace 911 emergency calls. The problem that the public is having with this sort of access is that law enforcement can have access to private conversations held over another phone, from a phone in the room that has been switch off by using the microphone in that phone. There are already some lawsuits in effect over these matters. There are even some companies whose customers have been added to those annoying telemarketing lists, by way of the tracking systems. Everyone knows when you are on a telemarketing list is extremely exhausting to get your number off that list. With the ability to track position of cell phones we are in an unusual time where technology can be used to both violate our rights, and save our lives. Hopefully, we can find a nice compromise.
