More on Sprint and GPS <\/strong><\/p>\n

See Warrantless electronic surveillance of you<\/a> by Featheriver about a Ph.D. dissertation on the subject of Sprint’s cooperation with law enforcement in giving away GPS information on telephones:<\/p>\n

Christopher Soghoian, a graduate student at Indiana University\u2019s School of Informatics and Computing has been gathering data and analyzing data about such surveillance in preparation of his PhD dissertation. He secured and released an audio recording of \u201cSprint\/Nextel\u2019s Electronic Surveillance Manager, Paul Taylor, describing how his company has provided GPS location data about its wireless customers to law enforcement over 8 million times. That\u2019s potentially millions of Sprint\/Nextel customers who not only were probably unaware that their wireless provider even had an Electronic Surveillance Department, but who certainly did not know that law enforcement offers could log into a special Sprint Web portal and, without ever having to demonstrate probable cause to a judge, gain access to geolocation logs detailing where they\u2019ve been and where they are.\u201d [Source: Ars Technica] You can be certain that other such communications providers, for example AT&T do the same. Perhaps that Garmin GPS travel device in your vehicle can provide the same information to other companies as well.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
