Sorry school-skipping teenagers and spouse-cheating losers, AT&T has launched FamilyMap, which will track a phone’s location either by GPS or cell-phone tower triangulation on a Microsoft Live Map. Other providers have offered similar services for a while, but now AT&T has gotten into the big brother spy game.
The service is free for the first 30 days and then $9.99 a month for two phones or $14.99 for up to five there afterwards. Each phone that is locatable will periodically receive a text message reminding them that big brother can keep tabs on the phone, but this message is random about once a month. Plus, a similar text message is sent when the service is activated limited the chance that a snooping parent or spouse can spy without the phone user’s knowledge. Also, this service can locate a stolen phone, however retrieving said phone from the baddie isn’t included with the monthly rate. Well then, let the over obsesive location tracking begin!

This article’s use of the term ‘big brother’ in this context is amazingly wrong. A few family members keeping track of each other is about as far from governmental ‘big brother’ as you can get. The article is not just wrong, but nearly as wrong as possible. I won’t point out the grammar mistakes, either. a hint: there are two.
