Only 8 million?

I don't think people realize how insignificant 8 million pings is.
Our department used this portal for a very specific use where we needed to know the locations of officers while they were away from their vehicle. We pinged 20 phones every 15 seconds for 7 days; so we accounted for 10% of those pings with just that one use.
In another such use, using a different portal than the one mentioned in the article but using sprint devices, we generated over 36 million pings last year for just our one department.
Not a single one of those pings was used to track a civilian.

Which show what a NON-issue this really is....
