Big Mother is Watching

The Eye Sees AllI was fortunate enough to grow up with parents who trusted me. Sure, they occasionally took a look at the history and cookies on the family machine, but their snooping never went any further.

Woe to you less fortunate kids (or husbands, or wives) with AT&T a-GPS capable phones. Today the company launched FamilyMap, a location service that can track up to two phones from any web browser, mobile or PC-based. Parents can set up alerts and even ping children’s phones to let them know the big eye-in-the-sky is watching. The basic service costs $10 a month. At $15 you can track up to 5 phones. Sorry, Octo-mom, you’ll have to tether a few kids together to keep tabs on ’em.
