| The CDR is suppose to be a diagnostic tool to help fix customer issues. It shows which cell site and sector, numbers called, duration, if the call dropped or was initiated hang up. It does not show exactly where you are in the street or store just which site/sector your on. You could run a search on a PTN for a week and see a persons commute.
Many privacy issues, where if the data being parsed has the PTN, if lets say you knew a person that you wanted to rob and had their PTN, you could see their commute to work, know when they would generally arrive back in the home area. Would make it very easy for thief's. Data would not have to be fresh either long as you had enough to see a pattern is all you would need. |

Advertisers are now going to start 'targeting' me just because my cell phone 'pinged' from there?
Unless advertisers start spamming you with junk to your cell phone, email, and computer browser, I don't see it as a problem...yet. |
