I always feel like somebody's watching me....
From the New York Times Tracking phones for traffic reports :
"These new traffic systems can monitor several hundred thousand cellphones at once. The phones need only be turned on, not in use. And sophisticated software now makes it possible to discern whether a signal is coming from, say, a moving car or a pedestrian. State officials say the systems will monitor large clusters of phones, not individual phones, and the benefits could be substantial. By providing a constantly updated picture of traffic flow across thousands of miles of highways, they argue, cellphone tracking can help transportation agencies spot congestion and divert drivers by issuing alerts by radio or on electronic road signs"So, the Government can track your whereabouts by your phone and your EZPass. They can tell if your in a moving car by your cell phone.
Next step, my little Orwellians, tickets issued because your time between the Union and Raritian tolls shows you must have been doing 70 MPH, or maybe you get a ticket on a little country road because your cell phone switched towers and we know you were doing 40 MPH not the posted 35 MPH.
