?(?¿?)? BORG says...

It's just shown a couple of ukrmers to be away from their normal homes.
It's pretty accurate on those I know to be where they should be too.

 

Didn't work properly.

I put two mobile numbers in whose locations I know, and they both came up to
be in Wisbech, where I know they aren't.

Makes me wonder if it's not just phishing for numbers to spam ...

 

I wonder where the network operators stand on making this info available
against the wishes of the individual. Data protection act issue?

 

Accurate for the number I tested.

 

tallbloke came up with the following;:

Might be the provider, both the numbers I tried are O2 ...I'll try a couple
more.

 

It looks up the mobile system (MS) msisdn (the number of your mobile)
number on the relevent HLR[1] (home location register) or VLR (visitors
location register) to see what BSC[2] (base station controller) your MS is
using.

[1] A big computer with a database that is updated with you home location,
IE where you are at the moment so it knows which transmitter to send the
phone signal to.

[2] Which transmitter your phone is talking to.

Anyway it didn't work for Orange. Obviously no roaming agreement with them.

 

tallbloke came up with the following;:

Might, dunno why , be a problem with IE .. using Firefox it worked fine.

 

Worked with i.e. on xp here.

 

well it failed to find mine - an orange number that's sitting outside
the UK. It also failed to find an ex-Orange number, that's been ported
to voda, and is sat in the UK.

So, a bit shit really.

worked on all my orange numbers ,

 

"Network does not support this" on a T-mobile phone ... thank
goodness.

 

I may be paranoid, but it may be being used as a hone-trap to capture
peoples mobile numbers. I tested it on my work phone but not my
personal one.

 

Tried 6 numbers - Found 0

Shit.

 

Totally shite, failed to find my company mobile. I'll not be giving
them the opportunity on any of the personal ones.

 

tallbloke came up with the following;:

And it's working here, now, with XP and ie. Flaky connection maybe.

Still, glad I didn't use my own numbers, 'just in case'.

I thought it would have found that pretty "Pronto" ;o)

In uk.rec.motorcycles, Dave amazed us all with this pearl of wisdom:

It found mine.

Quite. I wish I'd known about this a while back.

 

It failed to find an Orange number sat next to me; a Vodaphone number
upstairs and a T-Mobile number "wherever my daughter is".
