The Sexy Spy Is Your Cell Phone

Your cell phone’s battery suddenly runs out faster than usual even when you have not been talking more? Your cell phone is unusually warmer even in between calls? An unusual annoying pulse buzzing while you’re on a call or between calls? You seem to have trouble shutting it off, or it stays lit up after you’ve powered down? The phone sometimes lights up when you aren’t making or receiving a call, or using any other function?

Your cell phone could be transmitting every word you say, every text message you send or receive (even if you’ve deleted them) and your exact location.

Even when your cell phone is turned off, it could still be used to listen to you and what goes on around you.

Most governments get their countries’ telcos to acquire and install systems that allow them to listen to any citizen’s calls or to track their location. It would be naive to think that Malaysian government does not eavesdrop. But I believe the government does not listen to you, unless you’re a gangster boss, or someone considered a threat. Or an opposition politican???

Your cell phone connects you to the world, but it could also be giving anyone from your boss to your wife a window into your every move. The same technology that lets you stay in touch on-the-go can now let others tap into your private world — without you ever even suspecting something is awry.

As an individual you can easily, in about 2 to 10 minutes, bug someone’s cell phone, enabling you to eavesdrop on every conversation, text message, website visit, and track every where the person goes. When the cell phone is turned off, you can turn on its microphone and remotely listen to what the person is doing.

How To Spy Using Cell Phone

Do you want to secretly spy on SMS text messages, calls, GPS locations and other confidential info of your child’s, spouse’s, girlfriend’s, competitor’s, boss’ or staff’s cell phone?

Before you can spy on a cell phone you need to know the following facts.

To spy on a given cell phone you should make sure that the target cell phone is compatible with the cell phone spy software. Cell phone spy softwares are compatible with the following type of phones (operating systems).

1. Symbian OS (Most Nokia Phones)
2. Apple iphone
3. Windows Mobile

Today most of the modern cell phones are loaded with one of the above three operating systems and hence compatibility doesn’t pose a major problem. There exists many cell phone spy softwares on the market to accomplish this job and hence people often get confused about which cell phone spy software to go for. Top rated cell phone spy software include Mobile Spy and FlexiSpy.

These are hybrid spy software/service which allows you to spy on your target cell phone in real time. This unique system records the activities of anyone who uses the cell phone. For this you need to install a small application onto the cell phone. This application starts at every boot of the phone but remains stealth and does not show up in the running process list. It runs in the background and will spy on every activity that takes place on the phone, including logging:

1. Calls Log – Each incoming and outgoing number on the phone is logged along with duration and time stamp.
2. Every text message/MMS is logged even if the phone’s logs are deleted. Includes full text.
3. The phones’s current location is frequently logged using GPS when signal is available.
4. Each address entered into Internet Explorer (or any browser) is logged.

· These cell phone spy software works in total stealth mode. The person using the phone can never come to know about the presence of this software.

Simple surveillance

You don’t have to plant a James Bond-style bug to conduct surveillance any more. A service called World Tracker (available on in UK) lets you use data from cell phone towers and GPS systems to pinpoint anyone’s exact whereabouts, any time — as long as they’ve got their phone on them.

All you have to do is log on to the web site and enter the target phone number. The site sends a single text message to the phone that requires one response for confirmation. Once the response is sent, you are locked in to their location and can track them step-by-step. The response is only required the first time the phone is contacted, so you can imagine how easily it could be handled without the phone’s owner even knowing.

Cell phone apps like Loopt and the new Google Latitude also allow you to track your friends' physical locations, and be tracked in return.

Advanced Eavesdropping

Once connected, the service shows you the exact location of the phone by the minute, conveniently pinpointed on a Google Map. The company has indicated plans to expand its service to other countries soon.

So you’ve figured out where someone is, but now you want to know what they’re actually doing. With software like FlexiSpy and Mobile Spy, you can listen in, even if they aren’t talking on their phone. Dozens of other programs are available that’ll turn any cell phone into a high-tech, long-range listening device. They run virtually undetectable to the average eye.

FlexiSpy, for example, promises to let you “catch cheating wives or cheating husbands” and even “bug meeting rooms.” Its tools use a phone’s microphone to let you hear essentially any conversations within earshot. Once the program is installed, all you have to do is dial a number to tap into the phone’s mic and hear everything going on. The phone won’t even ring, and its owner will have no idea you are virtually there at his side.

It’s Totally Illegal

You might be asking how this could possibly be legal. Turns out, it isn’t – at least, not in the ways I’ve just described. Much like those fancy smoking devices designed “for tobacco use only,” the software itself gets by because of a disclaimer saying it doesn’t endorse any illegal use.

Can the government use your cell phone records to track your physical location without first obtaining a warrant based on probable cause? My opinion on the matter is “no”. Any government applications for cell site location tracking information made without showing sufficient need for this kind of sensitive information should not be granted by authorities or the courts of law.

Even for our government to eavesdrop on you – it’s illegal.

Surveillance intensive future is inevitable.

A surveillance intensive future is inevitable. And cell phone tracking will be a common law enforcement investigative technique.

On the commercial side, the uses of location tracking are endless. And many of them may well turn out to be things people like. But a key principle of privacy, accepted around the world as part of the core fair information principles, is that information collected for one purpose shouldn’t be used for other purposes without people’s affirmative permission. If someone wants to sign up for a friend-finding service and understands fully what this means for their privacy (and hopefully has the ability to turn it on and off), that’s one thing. But people who are just using their mobile phones for texting and calling friends and family do not expect that companies will exploit the side effects of how cell phones work for other, unrelated purposes that invade their privacy.

Protecting Your Cell Phone

Unfortunately, there isn’t much you can do to safeguard your cell phone just yet. I’m sure it’s only a matter of time until we see Kaspersky or McAfee-style programs to firewall your phone and keep intruders out. For now, though, the only sure-fire form of protection is to keep a close guard on your phone. Don’t accept Bluetooth connections unless you know what they are. Most important, make sure no one has access to install something when you aren’t watching. Otherwise, they may soon be watching you when you least expect it.

Coolest, Sexiest Concept Cars - WTF!

WTF!!! It's powered by nuclear reactor! This Darth Vader-looking machine as 24 wheels in bunches of six. The creators of this car claim that every part of it can go 100 years without maintenance. And yes, it's World Thorium Fuel (WTF) concept.


This topless 2-seater Jeep Renegade has the flared wheel openings and oversized tires of a dune buggy. The dual-fuel car claims low fuel consumption from its Bluetec diesel engine and electric motors.


This Ford Lincoln C's sexiness gives a reminiscent of the past, while its low glass top gives a sporty, convertible look. It's a Ford Focus chassis turned into a roadster.


This hybrid has an aggressively sexy profile and together with its gull-wing doors, it looks lean and mean. This Hyundai Nuvis cleverly blends contemporary style with futuristic, sci-fi detailing.


Straight from the future, this Swedish Koenigsegg Quant runs on solar power—its skin is coated in photovoltaic film, letting it travel 300 miles on a 20-minute charge. e

Ten Orgasms Per Hour Zone

Would putting up signs that look like speed limits, but tell pedestrians that they are in, for example, a "10 Smiles Per Hour Zone" be frivolous nonsense and a waste of taxpayers' money?

I feel compelled to write about this today after my mother complained to me about how strange it was that the shopkeepers at Cabang Tiga market in Kuala Terengganu did not wear any smile and were unfriendly. Certainly, for a state that has many long stretches of beautiful beaches and rich cultural heritage, it's strange. The supposedly world class equistrian resort is staffed by people who find it so difficult to smile and greet visitors.

In the 1970's, American psychologists Alice Isen and Paula Levin conducted an experiment in which some randomly selected people making a phone call found a ten-cent coin left behind by a previous caller, and others did not. All subjects were then given an opportunity to help a woman pick up a folder of papers she dropped in front of them.

Isen and Levin claimed that of the 16 who found a coin, 14 helped the woman, while of the 25 who did not find a coin, only one helped her. A further study found a similar difference in willingness to mail an addressed letter that had been left behind in the phone booth: those who found the coin were more likely to mail the letter.

While the differences shown by Isen and Levin seem orgasmic, very small positive experiences can make people not only feel better about themselves, but also be more helpful to others. There is little doubt that being in a good mood makes people feel better about themselves and more likely to help others. Psychologists refer to it as the "glow of goodwill."

Can it be concluded that Terengganu people lack positive experiences? I'm looking for an explanation as to why drivers in Kuala Terengganu have very little sense of consideration for others - slow drivers hog the fast lane, motorcyclists hog one whole lane, cars are parked in parking lots that aren't theirs.

Why shouldn't taking small steps that may produce such a glow be part of the role of government?

Don't we all want our children and those who live in our communities after the present generation has gone to have the same or even better opportunities for a good quality of life as today's residents have. To protect that quality of life, we have to be able to measure all the varied aspects that contribute to it - and friendliness is one of them.

For both state gov't and local municipalities, preventing crime is a far higher priority than encouraging friendship and cooperation. In his recent book Happiness: Lessons from a New Science, Professor Richard Layard of the London School of Economics has argued that promoting friendship is often easy, cheap, and can have big payoffs in making people happier.

So why shouldn't that be a focus of public policy?

In Australia's Port Phillip, the Mayor says that putting up the signs is an attempt to encourage people to smile or say "G'day"—the standard Australian greeting—to both neighbors and strangers as they stroll down the street. Mayor Janet Bolitho adds that smiling, encourages people to feel more connected with each other and safer, so it reduces fear of crime—an important element in the quality of life of many neighborhoods.

In a related effort to get its residents to know each other, the city government also facilitates street parties. It leaves the details to the locals, but offers organizational advice, loans out barbecues and sun umbrellas, and covers the public liability insurance. Many people who have lived in the same street for many years meet each other for the first time at a street party.

All of this is part of a larger program that attempts to measure changes in the city's quality of life, so that the city council can know whether it is taking the community in a desirable direction. The council wants Port Phillip to be a sustainable community, not merely in an environmental sense, but also in terms of social equity, economic viability, and cultural vitality.

Port Phillip does not consider private car ownership as a sign of prosperity, instead, it hails a declining number of cars—and rising use of public transport—as a sign of progress in reducing greenhouse gas emissions while encouraging a healthier lifestyle in which people are more inclined to walk or ride a bike.

Can Kuching use this measure of quality of city life: the proportion of people who smile at you in the city?
