		<description>i know theres a lot of people out there that say who cares.the same as when a cop pulls you over and wants to search your car.he says if you have nothing to hide its not a problem.[his exscuse with out a cause].well thats not the way this country was formed and the list is endless why we have the rights we have in this country[USA]..i better stop before i get carried away.WAKE UP PEOPLE.they can make phones that dont track,they can make comp. that dont get viruses.dah dah dah.why do you think they,[gov]wants to free up all the air waves[rf]frequencies and make us all go digital.wheres choice wheres privacy.we will sure know when its all gone!!</description>

		<description>They can stil track you with your phone turned off.  Cell phones emit a signal periodically even when turned off in order to update tower informatin.  You'd have to remove the battery.</description>

How do you live your day to day life? Are you constantly going around worrying about the g-mans brainwave scanner devices? YES we emit unique frequencies, but they are so low powered that you'd have to be less than one meter away to be able to pick them up.

So please David, as a request from another human transmitter :P

Throw away tour tinfoil hat. Seriously.</description>

		<description>Let me put it to you all this way, FORGET THE CELL PHONE,
THEY DO NOT NEED A CELL PHONE ANYMORE! That is Sooooo yesteryear's technology. Did you all happen to know that every living organisim has it's own frequency? That frequency can be tapped into and used exactly like a cell phone (with some "Modifications").

Have any of you ever heard of Sir Rife? do a google search for "RIFE FREQUENCIES" and see what you get.
If primative bacteria and Viruses have their own frequencies (and they are primative by the way), Y
wouldn't mankind? Ahhh jetz ja...eine insel! 
Wikipedia's

Definition of Frequencies:

For cyclical processes, such as rotation, oscillations, or waves, frequency is defined as a number of cycles, or periods, per unit time. In physics and engineering disciplines, such as optics, acoustics, and radio, frequency is usually denoted by a Latin letter f or by a Greek letter ν (nu).

In SI units, the unit of frequency is hertz (Hz), named after the German physicist Heinrich Hertz. For example, 1 Hz means that an event repeats once per second, 2 Hz is twice per second, and so on [1]. This unit was originally called a cycle per second (cps), which is still sometimes used. Heart rate and musical tempo are measured in beats per minute (BPM). Frequency of rotation is often expressed as a number of revolutions per minute (rpm). BPM and rpm values must be divided by 60 to obtain the corresponding value in Hz: thus, 60 BPM translates into 1 Hz.

The period is usually denoted as T, and is the reciprocal of the frequency f:
The SI unit for period is the second (s).

If you have read this article from the beginning, then you know that we transmit frequencies just by thinking.
(Thinking controls hearing, sight, taste, movement, feelings, etc,.). We are walking transmitters! A sensitive satellite could pick out our bodily signatures where ever we are, now that my friends is Big brother old school style. Think about it.</description>

		<description>do I understand correctly that a target phone MUST have some sort of software downloaded on it before any conversations, background sounds, etc., can be overheard? that is, to date, there is no available technology exacting the "likeness" of GPS with the ability to track by cell phone number then locate a specific cell phone to also read that same cell phone's SIM card accessing texts and/or listen in on conversations?</description>

		<description>Can anyone tell me if it is possible for someone in the Ukraine to listen in on cell phone calls between two people in the US?  I don't understand how it could be possible, but a friend of mine has reason to believe IT IS occuring.  Are hackers sophisticated enough to pull off something like this over such a long distance?</description>

		<description>The Question is, when have we taken technology too far?
Imagine if...one day mankind is wired like a cell phone 
with no off button and somebody was to make a copy of your "SIM", that would mean they can see what you see, hear what you hear, feel what you feel and hear what you think 24/7.

That is not the worst thing, Like a GPRS modem, they could download what ever they want to, tell your eyes not to see that oncoming truck on the wrong side of the road that you mysteriously wandered over onto....
or not see an on rushing car whilst crossing the street.

Like Bearden said, it is like going through a paradigm shift to understand what is truly possible with this type of technology, it boggles the mind!</description>

		<description>There is a technology available in Asia that allows you to overhear all conversation on a cell. It works that way, if you can access a SIM card from a cell phone, you can take the SIM to somebody and duplicate it. Bingo, the cell phone is yours now, you can completely hear all conversation in and out from the cell phone no matter how far the cell phone is.</description>

If someone can hear your conversations from your handset and connect your handset to theirs, will the service provider charge you for airtime used? After all, you are sending your conversation to someone. 

If the service provider doesn’t charge you for airtime when someone is eavesdropping on you, then can’t this easily installable software be used to acquire free cellphone service when installed on two or more handsets?".

Come on people. let's not be so naive. I will take this one step further.... Elephants, the "Current" largest land Mammals on Earth communicate via Elf (Extremely low frequencies, Do you see the Metaphysical connection there?),:

Extremely low frequency (ELF) is the US Navy and Soviet/Russian Navy to communicate with submerged submarines used the band of radio frequencies from 3 to 30 Hz. ELF.

Explanation
Because of the electrical conductivity of salt water, submarines are shielded from most electromagnetic communications. Signals in the ELF frequency range, however, can penetrate much deeper. Two factors limit the usefulness of ELF communications channels; the low data transmission rate of a few characters per minute, and to a lesser extent the one-way nature due to the impracticality of installing a huge transmitter on a submarine. Generally ELF signals were used to order a submarine to rise to a shallow depth where it could receive "some other form" of communication.

The Ultra Low Frequency (ULF) is the frequency range between 300 hertz and 3 kilohertz. Many types of waves in the ULF frequency band can be observed in the "magnetosphere" and on the ground. These waves represent important physical processes in the near-Earth plasma environment. The speed of the ULF waves is often associated with the Alfven velocity that depends on the ambient magnetic field and plasma mass density.

This band is used for communications in mines, as it can penetrate the earth. [1]

Earthquakes
Some monitoring stations have reported that a spike sometimes precedes earthquakes in ULF activity. A remarkable example of this occurred before the Loma Prieta Earthquake in California in 1989. Researchers are attempting to learn more about this correlation to find out whether this method can be used as part of an early warning system for earthquakes.

Earth Mode Communications
ULF has been used by the military for secure communications through the ground. NATO AGARD publications from the 1960s detailed many such systems, although one suspects the contents of the published papers left a lot unsaid about what actually was developed secretly for defense purposes. Communications through the ground using conduction fields is known as "Earth Mode" communications and was first used in WWI. Radio amateurs and electronics hobbyists have used this mode for limited range communications using audio power amplifiers connected to widely spaced electrode pairs hammered into the soil (telegraph anyone?). At the receiving end the signal is detected as a weak electric current between two further pairs of electrodes. Using weak signal reception methods with PC based DSP filtering with extremely narrow bandwidths it is possible to receive signals at a range of a few kilometers with a transmitting power of 10-100W and electrode spacing of around 10-50m.

By changing the electrical conductivity of the air itself, (Air pollution), Worldwide agencies can exploit
These types of air quality Pollution, Corruption by "Airplane Contrails mixed with Barium oxide " and or Certain manufacturing air quality output levels et al, to increase air conductivity which could result in propagation of certain frequencies that could interface with our metabolisms. That means they don't need cell phones or television, a satellite will do! The local cell phone, television microwave relay station or radar installations wave output transformed down to a certain area and your body frequency can do the job! 

How about creating an Earthquake at the nearest fault line at the push of a button? Where have you all been?
Let's take this horror scenario to the next step...
ready for this? I DON'T THINK SO! How about resonating the SUN...ANYONE? with the right frequency and a Di-pole antenna, anyone could resonate the sun and cause a Solar Outburst that would devastate the EARTH. See Tesla.

Talk about Sci-fi huh? Probable? you bet! It is only a matter of TIME. Oh shit, gave away another key. Somebody stop me!.... (Mask),:-).

Consider this message as an initial countdown to Armageddon as there is no such thing as Information Technology security, Nuff said!</description>
