Cell Phones and Privacy: Paranoia At Its Finest

      Personally I have never been paranoid enough to worry about people tracking me through my cell-phone. I know, and have known, that it happens ever since I got a cellphone. People need to relax and understand that nothing they say over any electronic device or social medium is ever going to be private. If you want to have a private conversation - do it in person. Its really that simple. Electronics, such as cell-phones, are every day things that everyone uses and we all just need to accept that its not a perfect system. Either way we will still use and abuse cell phones and continue to get tracked. 
People who want prepaid cellphones honestly worry me. What is so private and/or who are you calling that is so private that there can be no record of it? The only valid, not totally sketchy excuse, would be that you are in a witness protection program and really can not have anyone looking into what you are doing. Otherwise, it is weird and concerning to me that you need so much privacy. I don't see celling prepaid cellphones as a necessity in America - just distribute them to those who need it and approved by the government to get one. If I saw someone just buying a prepaid cellphone I would be totally suspicious of what they needed it for. 
    The paranoia that people have with technology and who can hear them or see what they say drives me crazy. We have been warned of this for years and of course it will never stop us from using these devices. We, as a people, have no right to criticize the companies who track you because not only is it usually included in the privacy specifics, which no one ever reads, but it also is just a part of the technological world. If you have nothing to hide then you shouldn't be worried what people can see. And furthermore, if there really is something you want no one knowing than talk face to face in a private place. 

    Yes, the government and/or companies will always be watching what you do electronically, but a problem will only arise through how we choose to react to it.
