"Anti-Theft" products that can be tapped
In fact, Zhou used the "positioning tracker", in many electronic shopping malls are sold.
In Zhongguancun, a number of electronic products shops can buy such GPS positioning, monitoring equipment, but the shopkeeper is more cautious, never put on the counter, only in the customer inquiries, will be from the cabinet or warehouse to take out samples, and sometimes trial and trade, but also to the hidden corners outside the mall.

Real-time positioning accuracy to meters
In many shops, a "Xiamen still Yu Hua research electronic Technology" of the shop selling the monitoring positioning equipment, and Zhou has shown the "small black box" exactly the same price for 349 yuan. Another cost of 50 yuan, but also from the company to buy a non-real-name China Mobile phone card.
"Small black box" arrived after the opening of the packaging, the reporter found that this is a typical production plant name, site, quality Certificate of "three without" products, the actual shipping has also become Fujian Zhangzhou. And inquires "Xiamen Yu Hua Research electronic Technology", there is no business registration information.

Many times, the reporter found that the map can be real-time display of the monitored object's running track, location and speed, but also nearly 60 days of the route record, drawn into the whereabouts of the track.
Reporter Bauli with "small black box", from West two ring to East two ring, halfway to the bus, subway, taxi and walk the way to experience. Monitoring page on the display of direction, speed, latitude and longitude, time and other related information, can be roughly judged by the way reporters travel.

Customer service said, in addition to using a computer site, can also use mobile phone to download the corresponding app software, or through the micro-letter account, real-time monitoring of the car or the target person's location.
Tracker's hiding charge.
In addition to positioning monitoring, this "small black box" can also achieve real-time monitoring function.
Just like a phone call, it doesn't matter how far away it is, there is a signal that can be heard. "Customer service said, just to" small black box "inside the phone card number to send instructions, and then dial the mobile phone number, 3 seconds later, call into the automatic answer mode," small black box "around all the sound, through the microphone came.
The reporter also carried on the monitoring experiment, as long as the cell phone signal is good, returns the sound is very clear. The "Little black box" made no noise throughout the eavesdropping process.
In addition to being silent and getting smaller, some positioning listening devices have a better way of hiding.
Netizen "Wang Xiao Stay" from the Internet to buy back the charge treasure was accidentally fell, the shell cracked, he found that there are some strange accessories, "online Check this unexpectedly is a positioning listening device."

Earlier, the Ministry of Public Security has deployed to fight against citizens of personal Information crime network of the National Special action, in the face of the seizure of various positioning, monitoring, videotaping and other equipment, police investigators also can not help but sigh: "than we use the equipment are concealed." ”
Zengjianqiu, director of the Research Center for Information Economy and competitiveness at the Beijing Institute of Posts, said the bug was actually an alien mobile phone with an automatic answering and positioning function, "not a High-tech".
Between legal and illegal
Many smartphones are equipped with positioning functions, like these "profiled mobile phones", can also be combined with the background site, real-time viewing location. The technology is widely used by some mobile phone security software companies because it is easy to find back because of theft and loss of mobile phones.
"Although the principle of technology is the same as the positioning of eavesdropping devices, the operating process is very different." "A beijing-based network company engineer said that the company and software have passed the qualification audit, to locate and monitor a mobile phone must first install the appropriate software in this phone, registration of personal real information and obtain authorization." Once the phone is lost can be launched through the company's official website locator monitoring program, but only for the mobile phone binding.
"If the other party does not know, with any mobile phone or a software to other people's mobile phone, cell phone device tracking, or even monitoring, it is illegal." "The staff said.
In this regard, Beijing Li min law firm Ma Zhanwei lawyer said, now smart phones and a large number of applications have positioning tracking function, for positioning equipment installation and use is illegal, should be the main consideration, first, the installation and use of the positioning equipment is in line with the provisions of national law. Second, whether the installation of the equipment to inform the installation of the person, the installer is informed by the installation of the consent of the person. Thirdly, the information obtained from the equipment is used for other unauthorized uses or illegal purposes before the consent of the installer. If it belongs to the unauthorized installation and use of the positioning equipment, in addition to the State has the right to investigate outside the organ, are illegal.
For such illegal equipment, the public security organs are not without a blow.
Last September, the Beijing police unified operation, in Changping, Zhongguancun, also Zhuang development Zone, seized 28 companies illegally selling eavesdropping equipment, captured 53 suspects, and seized 29, 3,600 pieces of equipment. Certified by the National Security Department, these equipment are equipped with camouflage, covert eavesdropping anti-theft function, are eavesdropping special equipment.
"Although there are laws to prohibit the production, sale and use of such eavesdropping equipment, but now the rapid development of technology, the law should further clarify and expand the scope of the definition of related equipment, enhance the operability of law enforcement." The lawyer said, because the sales method is more subtle and flexible, and the difficulty of obtaining evidence and attack is also greater, so the law enforcement departments should strengthen the supervision and law enforcement in all aspects of production, sale and use, and carry out effective governance for such behavior.
