To be honest I'm not really sure what the fuss is about.

There is no personally identifying information (such as an ID, phone-number, account no etc) transmitted and it pales in comparison to what a phone company has access to, even before cross-referencing cell tower data with their own records.



if there was a way to make it so that the cell provider didn't know where I was, I'd want that too.
