14:02 The spy in your pocket How your mobile phones can give your same geographic coordinates? | |
| Once in early February 2011 in Lente.Ru was reported detained in the Netherlands twelve Somali illegal immigrants on charges of planning terrorist attacks, some readers were concerned about the mention of technology arrest: It was in fact publicly declared that the officers received information about the status of illegal immigrants in using GPS-modules in cellphones, sending to the telephone numbers of illegal immigrants a message that was processed without the knowledge of the owners of cellphones, followed by mobile phones (again, unbeknownst to the owners) will automatically send an SMS showing the location of vehicles. Judging by the fact that the detentions were made in seven different places, this technology was supposed to work in seven mobiles (with a maximum of twelve), so it certainly is widespread. Appears: 1) With the SMS-Centre, legally connected to the global network of SS7, with a simple MAP-query, and knowing only a phone number, you can find and IMSI (number of SIM), and address of the switch, which serves the subscriber, and the state of cell phone (turned on or off). Read more - over there. If there is a map of the binding switches to the terrain, it gives the approximate coordinates of the caller. 2) There is a standard RRLP, describes how to read with the GSM-mobile phone its precise GPS-coordinates through a mobile communication network. Over there they write that many smart phones with GPS (especially shtatovskih production) support this standard, as it was conceived as a means of determining the coordinates of callers in distress. Just create a fake site near a cellular subscriber in order to achieve the desired unhindered. But these or not these methods used in the Netherlands? Mystery. | |
