Give Big Brother the power... I'm sure he won't ever abuse it.
Actually, it is cool and you're supposed to be able to select who can track you. You can even allow it to only track your city and not "exact" location.
Just wait, though. It will get tied into location based advertising.

It sounds wonderful until someone forces Google to cooperate with law enforcement.

^ Haha yeah thats true. Plus, as long as your phone is on, "they" can triangulate your location based on which cell towers you're connected to (yes, just like on TV). Thats how some phones have faux-GPS functionality.
Anyway, anyone on this?

GMM can't use my UNLOCKED GPS on my Storm for some reason. People think it's because Verizon chose Microsoft as their official search. There are some really remedial navigation programs that are able to use the Storm's GPS, but for some reason a program made by the Google Gods can't use it.

I tried it on my E71. It worked, although when linked to maps.google.com (the website),
it didn't seem to update my position real-time. I drove around the block and they didn't see me moving.
Especially with a real GPS on your phone, there are loads of use for this.
Ever try to find someone in the middle of a huge park?
