Risk Technology: Mobile phones more riskier

Recenlty, I had discussed in an earlier post about a mobile phone tracking service which is available in the west...which uses the GPS technology.

I saw it on the BBC's programme ">Click", and today the programme reported a few comments they received from their viewers on that programme. The ineresting comments were,

1. "Did you also know that its possible to remotely activate the microphone on a mobile phone without the phone owner knowing it.. Its also possbile to remotely activate the camera of the mobile phone. So its possible to not just track, but also see and hear what the person is doing."

- For goodness's sake, the person didn't say how... and I only hope its atleast difficult to do.

2. "They can track where-all the person is going by tracking his phone.. so easily, then why can't they track my stolen mobile phone?"

- The BBC presenter said, "I really don't know the answer for that question".
