    Mobile Phone and privacy

    Looks like that the land line phone is the only option until the networks resolve the issue with the SS7
    I just wonder how will affect business deals in the future........

    Huge flaw that undermines privacy of mobile phone networks revealed by German researchers

    My Son rang me the other day about some parts for our truck, I said Google some truck spares place to see if they have the parts.
    When he got off the phone there was a message from Google that they had located some truck spare parts businesses, with addresses and phone numbers in his local area.
    So Google knew where he was and what he was going to do and what he wanted, SCARY, there's nowhere left for privacy, Regards Frank.

    It is possible to opt out of Google advertising to some extent.

    Opting out does not mean you won't get ads. It just means they will not be targeted according to your search activities
