What are spy cell phones? What are the different
uses of spy phones? Read on to find out.
Imagine a cell phone secretly
watching your behavior. Think of your mobile phone eyeing
your actions and recording them in its memory. Sounds
impossible? I am afraid, it isn't. In fact, cell phones can
be used to track user behavior and record conversations and
text messages that are exchanged through them.
A spy phone is a mobile phone or a spy device that allows a
user to monitor and hear or record conversations and other
activities taking place over the phone.
Spy
phones can function in
different ways. They can be used as listening devices
whereby secretive conversations can be tracked. They
are popularly used by secret agencies to track
criminal activities that are carried out over cellular
networks. They can be used for tracking periodic calls
and recording the frequency of calls from certain
suspicious numbers. Spy phones can be used for
monitoring business and household activities while the
cell phone user is away.
Previously, simple wiretapping techniques were used to spy
telephonic conversations. Secret agencies and security
authorities commonly used phonetapping as a tool to track
the suspects' behavior. It would enable the security
officials to listen to the telephonic conversations taking
place over phones they tapped. However, with the
advancements in technology, spying became easier.
Today, installable software can be
used to record cell phone calls and messages. Also, there
are cell phone spying systems, wherein a spy is
automatically alerted when the cell phone user dials a
certain number. There are certain software applications,
which can be loaded onto the cell phones and be used for
maintaining call logs, recording text messages and
monitoring Internet activity over the mobile phone. Some of
these applications also let a user call the target cell
phone number from a preset number and track the target
user's activities. 'Phone Dead' is a relatively recent
technology that enables a cell phone to be used as a spy
phone even when switched off. In this case, the spy cell
phone is configured to function in a ghost mode, whereby it
silently answers the calls it receives.
With the implementation of modern spying techniques, cell
phones can be converted into call and text message
interceptors or GSM trackers, thus making them function as
spy cell phones. Besides tracking messages and
conversations, spy cell phones can also alert third-party
users of the target phone's outgoing calls. Spy phones can
also be used to track the target user's location by means
of GPS technologies. They can be programmed to record audio
or video for a predetermined period of time.
Spy cell phones give rise to legal as
well as ethical concerns. Their positive side is that they
can be used by parents to monitor the behavior of their
children. Also, they can be used by business officials to
track workplace activity. The most important application of
spy cell phones is in tracking criminal activities. But
there is another side to this and it is not positive. Yes,
spy cell phone software is easily available. Cell phones
are easily convertible to spy phones. Their ready
availability makes them subject to illegitimate use.
Malicious cell phone users can gain an unauthorized access
to other users' mobile phones and dampen the overall
security of cellular networks.
Perhaps, it is ironical that the technology that helps you
stay connected to the world can also provide any individual
with an unwarranted access to your life. It is probably
contrary to the concept of connectivity.
Being the guy who gets taken advantage of just plain sucks.
You give all your time to work hard and make money but it still
doesn't change. You can't even get that promotion you
wanted.
