Another Real Time Search Angle
July 7, 2009
Along with James Bond, urban legends have reached the wireless digital age, but this “legend” is true: there is Spyware for cell phones, and someone could be listening and tracking your every move. Check out this article at http://www.wthr.com/global/story.asp?s=9346833&ClientType=Printable that includes confirmation of the legitimate danger of these products by a former military intelligence officer who now teaches cyber forensics at Purdue University’s Department of Computer and Information Technology. While cell phone spyware has been used by the FBI in the past, it’s now available on the open market from overseas. And while the article includes some tips for suspecting spyware and protecting yourself, reading about the possible danger is enough to make you reconsider using a cell phone at all.
