And it is updated all the time. Therefor the NSA has a big map. And they didn't even have to pay for it, at least not much. Just the tech fee for the data handover. They may not know the exact location, since the ongoing signal strength data isn't continuous, but mere blips can pretty much track all of us due to the number of sensors pretty much anywhere, which then can be used to find the center point during most time periods.

With my Cell Phone's GPS turned OFF I can still get within 20 feet or so of my position using just cellular tower triangulation. And *that is all the closer that we know they can do. What makes you think they want people to know they can get closer using cell towers than GPS... but GPS is more widely known, so they let that ride. -- greg@gregfolkert.net PGP key 1024D/B524687C 2003-08-05 Fingerprint: E1D3 E3D7 5850 957E FED0 2B3A ED66 6971 B524 687C
