Cell Phone Tracking

Today the class was assigned to pick a topic on privacy and then blog about it. I choose the topic "Cellphone Tracking." I choose that, because everyone in the U.S. has a Cellphone. Everyone is constantly using their phone to text, look at the internet, and talk to people. This topic is important to me and to most people in the U.S. and that's why I choose this topic.

The article written by Electronic Frontier Foundation (EFF) said that the government were secretly going around laws and tracking our location and phone activity. That is kind of a scary thought, that someone can see every move you make. It might make people think twice about using their phone to look something up. Also they stated that a judge admitted to getting around laws. EFF said that they were trying to fight for our right of privacy. Atleast some people think that the government is a little to nosy.
