>> NSA can pinpoint your exact location even when your not using it.

Well, technically, they can pinpoint the location of the *cell phone*. Which is not necessarily *your* location.

And actually, *pinpoint* is an exaggeration. They can tell what cell it’s in, which isn’t all that “pinpoint”.

But your point is well taken, anyhow.

The lesson is, don’t do stuff that makes NSA mad! (Or if you must, *steal* a cell phone.)
