Cell Phone Tracking by Non-State Actors
This is interesting:
Adding credence to the theory that Brooklyn landlord Menachem Stark was kidnapped and murdered by professionals, a law enforcement source tells the Post that the NYPD found a cell phone attached to the bottom of his car, which could have been used to track his movements.
Presumably the criminals installed one of those “track your children” apps that transmits the phone’s GPS data to some database somewhere.

Interesting,
I do not have much experience with attaching mobile phones to any bottoms ;-), but such a phone would have to be able to “see” the sky with its GPS receiver in order to get the GPS signal, right? So how would it work at the bottom of a car?
