That's what I meant, a cell phone. I kinda take it for granted, and don't put the word "cell" in front of it. Probably because that's the only phones in our home, and has been for some time. They don't have all of those "hidden" charges, or nowhere near as bad as AT&T does.
In fact, more & more people in the US only has cell service, and why not? It's portable & cheap. And unless you absolutely need the "latest" in a cell phone, many cell providers will practically give you a phone, as long as you sign a 2 year contract.
As far as tracking photos goes, I've only sent a few pics in text messages since I've been using cell phones. Normally, I take them, and store them on my computer in a separate folder.
I just don't see the purpose of tracking where pictures are taken, though. None whatsoever. If only the truth were known, there's no telling just how much info there is on everyone that's been compiled.
Like many others, my main concern is, just what's being done with this data & how long it's stored? Probably some more of the "homeland security" crap that's been going on for almost 10 years now.
