| Guns and GPS This is a similar debate to gun ownership. Guns by themselves are fine, misusing them is not so much. However you have to have guns in order to misuse them so the question is should we have them.
Similarly GPS enabled networked mobile devices (aka, your phone, laptop, car, boat, etc.) enable misuse. You have to trust that your network provider and law enforcement will not misuse it.
For some reason very few devices offer a true hardware off switch that gives you the option for disabling any of the location technology. Just "turn off" your phone and set it next to some amplified speakers. Chances are you'll still here the interference of the device calling back to the mothership.
