ZURICH (December 28, 1997 4:12 p.m. EST http://www.nando.net) - Swiss police have secretly tracked the whereabouts of mobile phone users via a telephone company computer that records billions of movements going back more than half a year, a Sunday newspaper reported.

Don't be fooled that this is a swiss only problem. It's being done here in Amerika right now.

The FCC has issued a ruling that will require all cellular telephone carriers to provide location information on all 911 calls. By the year 2001, this location information is to provide 125 metres of accuracy 67% of the time. Helping emergency services locate 911 callers is a great excuse for installing a cellular location system. Even better than the excuses they gave for eavesdropping-ready digital switches and limits on encryption. - -------------- Kay Ping nop 'til you drop -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: 2.6.3ia Charset: cp850 iQEQAwUBNKyXURHPAso8Qp7tAQH+LgfRATtByYG8nB+gbqvrJ96SGdhRPhXUWnzl 7gHW9+nr6lNQxgbFnU1cpOKR76Y0MEj80ls9n9DojlQuIKJD1RHXc7GQA3k0IVZU yXYyy8Z89dvVUxprVjt0MylxY1+fP7pGLVcViz9jZ/5cgZSgUdRKQNAWpp9g/Ww4 8GYSXGYGrC8hCPoD+i/cjwC3FEQVD+GzSmXnadK8a2a+stiehN1bw/p61+vizxQZ C9YG1AS54Ttzh/jUjnHmRwNYtY4J0i9zUXxElbwj8PcOW9GewTPw+/6fiQ63c35Q 2pCi2q9dk1jFtgIXfrBusSkKS9wP0yYmtLG6lc52YtC6MNE= =+pHY -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
