Well... of course the cell phone tracks your location. It has to, because if the system didn't know where you were, it couldn't route your calls to you.

I object to my Ipad tracking my location, though. I don't know how this information could be used to hurt me, but there's no way it could be used to HELP me-- other than the advertising industry's definition of "help," and they can go to hell. Therefore I don't want MY resources, any of my resources, devoted to it.

Besides, the ability to track me is a security risk. Knowing I go to certain places on a regular schedule gives somebody the ability to attack me there, or more likely to break into my home while I'm elsewhere. The risk of this is pretty small, but it is at least theoretically possible, and it would be better to kill this before it grows.

Except this is Apple. The Leader has said he wants to know where your iphone has gone, and The Leader has only your best interests at heart. And as all the Apple Fanboys say, if there's anything about your Apple you don't like, whatsoever, you should shut up and sell it. Stop badmouthing The Leader, who is enlightened, and loves you, and knows what is best for you. Instead, go buy a Windows device that will suit you better.

Which is why most peple do.
