... and they told two friends ...

Lost? Hiding? Your Cellphone Is Keeping Tabs

Howard Boyle, president of a fire sprinkler installation company in Woodside, N.Y., presented his employees with no such choice [of whether to keep their old cellphones, or accept new ones that have the ability to track their locations]. The five workers who have been given company phones with the G.P.S. feature have not been told that Mr. Boyle can find out if they have arrived at a work site, and whether they are walking around in it or sitting still.

So don't tell anybody, OK? It's a secret.
