Since early 2005 FCC regulations require all new cell
phones produced after that date to have the
tracking device within the phone. This was spawned
after 911 attacks and the beginning on the war on
individuals and people who have dialed 911 and are
unable to provide location information.
Cell phone companies have the ability to track all of
the the phones of their subscribers. In addition
implied FCC guidelines allow the tracking feature to
be used in cases of emergencies. Despite these
guidelines some carriers have contracted with so
called location based service providers. For a fee
these companies use data provided by cell phone
carriers to provide GPS tracking information. The
legality of these services many times depends on
the local or state government regulations. Cell
phone customers understandably are very wary of
intrusions into their privacy and on occasion sought
legal remedies to protect themselves. Some feel it is
a violation of their 4th amendment rights under the
constitution.
The GPS technology that is incorporated into cell
phone handsets is not the same as the units used in
your vehicle that you use to navigate the roads of
this country. Depending on the carrier and the type
of cell phone hardware used the location data may
be continuous or only available when a location
request is made. All these differences make tracking
an individual cell phone that you do not own or have
a legal interest in very troublesome at best.
The bottom line is that accessing cell phone
tracking information on your girl friend or business
competitor is generally unavailable and most likely
illegal.
