How Can Your Phone Be Tracked?

Most of us are aware that our phones contain a GPS (Global Positioning System) chips, but how much can they really track our phones?

The NSA assembled a team called Geolocation Cell or Geo Cell, with analysts and technicians from the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency with the intent of tracking people geographically in real time.

Geo Cell communicates with the CIA and US military around the world, the motto “We Track ’Em, You Whack ’Em.” quickly caught on at Geo Cell as they tracked the cell phones of al-Qaeda and other ‘terror suspects’ around the world.

Joint Special Operations Command(JSOC) called the technology “The Find” and it is reported that the technology developed could track phones even when they were turned off. This is probably due to “feature phones” that may not fully turn off.

For example, Graham said many old “feature phones,” even when they were switched off, would have a baseband processor power up every 10 minutes or so to retrieve SMS messages, but not phone calls. “The moral of this is that just because you define the phone as ‘off’ doesn’t mean that it’s 100% completely ‘off’ all the time,” he said. - Is That Phone Really Off? – InformationWeek

The simplest way tracking is done is by remotely installing a hidden app(application) on the phone which transmits the devices GPS location over the internet or even by SMS text messaging, all without the user knowing. The FBI used a similar technique called a “roving bug”, remotely turning on the microphones to listen in on people. There are publicly available apps like this for tracking your children or in case you lose your phone, or it gets stolen.

BlackBerry Unveils Two New Smartphones

Published on 30 Jan 2013 : Canadian smartphone maker Research In Motion (RIM), which makes the BlackBerry, says it's back. The company is trying to reclaim a market it once dominated by introducing two new devices. The last few years have been a painful time for the company as customers deserted its platform in favor of newer, more popular devices. As Mil Arcega reports, this may be the company's last chance to remain a vital player in an increasingly crowded marketplace.

Why the New BlackBerry Is Worth a Look

Remember the BlackBerry? RIM is hoping a new operating system will help get the brand back into your hands.

By many accounts, the BlackBerry is dead in the water--and it has been for some time. Yet, for all the hype surrounding Samsung's domination in the smartphone wars, and the simple fact that the iPhone 5 is still the top dog for usability and app selection, it is possible that Research in Motion (maker of the BlackBerry) might actually rebound.

Here's the most compelling reason why: The BlackBerry 10 operating system might be worth the wait. Few have had a chance to try out the new OS, which is rumored to debut within the next 60 days. And, it's unclear whether phones running the new OS will be able to compete with high-end models like the Samsung Galaxy SIII. Yet, some of the new BlackBerry 10 features do look impressive, especially for business users.

The Features

One useful feature is that the new OS has two modes, one for work and one for personal use. That's a nod to the reality of business today--we tend to buy our own phones and then use them at work, rather than use a company-issued phone. With a quick flick from work to personal, you'll see a different array of apps. You might have apps for work related to projects, managing your staff, and keeping up on business news. Then, you can switch to a view that only shows Pandora, a few games, and your personal Facebook account.

Another perk is that RIM seems to be serious about improving the mobile browser. We'll have to wait and see what the actual test results look like for speed, but there's an interesting feature for sharing what you find online. BlackBerry 10 can learn that you normally share by email or on Facebook, and then make that the default option automatically. I like how RIM is embracing adaptability to do some of the thinking for consumers.

The screen captures of the new software keyboard make me think RIM might finally have a winner in terms of replacing the thumbpad. It looks crisp and well-designed, with large enough keys for fast typing. Once again, the OS adapts to your typing to guess words on the fly and correct your common typos.

Will It Be Enough?

Clearly, RIM has a lot of work to do. Companies of all sizes are switching to more modern phones. Yet, there is a legion of BlackBerry fans out there. (I know, because I get the emails from them on a weekly basis.) Many companies have locked into contracts for BlackBerry Enterprise Server and are biding their time until a new model comes out that actually makes sense for deployment. RIM has a good track record in terms of rock-solid business security and lightning-fast push email delivery.

What could get in the way? Usability problems and lack of apps in the BlackBerry store could be lethal. If BlackBerry 10 ships with a plethora of user interface problems and bugs (say, apps that crash or cause confusion), and without the main headliners like Skype and Evernote, then this new OS could just be another whimper from RIM's corner. Stay tuned.
