A Very Long Leash

The days of being hopelessly lost are over for almost everyone almost all of the time.  Location services (like GPS) allow people to know where they are and where other people and things are located.  These services make life easier, but they also creates privacy risks and new opportunities for scammers who want to take advantage of them.  In this podcast we discuss the benefits and risks of locations services, why you should probably read the terms and conditions for your new car, and why in many ways your cell phone creates a very long leash.
