Mobile phones

All phone calls can be listened into if the listener has enough technological capacity. No phone call can be assumed to be secure. Analogue mobile phones are much less secure than digital mobile phones, and both are much less secure than landlines.

Both your location and your conversations can be picked up through cellular surveillance. You don’t have to be talking for your location to be tracked – this can be done anytime your mobile phone is switched on.

Do not keep information such as sensitive names and numbers in your phone’s memory. If your phone is stolen, this information can be used to track down and implicate people you want to protect.
