New research that makes creative use of sensitive location-tracking data from 100,000 cellphones in Europe suggests that most people can be found in one of just a few locations at any time, and that they do not generally go far from home.
...and this is old news.

I have a prepaid phone without a plan. I pay in cash at a dealer.

They also have a fairly simple ‘opt out’ from being in this data-gathering. I opted out all our lines.

Tom should dig a little deeper before writing article... You can opt out of it fairly simply. Just click on the link in the email. Geez

I sent it off to friends to let them know. Glad I don’t have them.

You can opt out, but it takes some doing. They made the opt out screen purposefully confusing and opaque. I managed to remove their tracking, but only because I work in the software industry and could spot their tricks of screen manipulation.
