Verizon keeps records for two years as to where your cell phone (as in YOU) has been. For years, people have warned about a 'mark' - they just don't know in practicality - as far as tracing your every movement 'live' and historically - it has been here for a long time.

Add in that any cell phone made after 2003 can be turned into a live mic, even when the phone is off, and well.... you are screwed. No privacy for the innocent, no escape for the guilty.
