Is there really a big difference between unlawful wire tapping and unlawful cell phone tracking?

In reality, aren’t these just both ways for government to spy on private citizens? I’m not defending either position of Conservatives or Liberals and I rarely use a cell phone unless I have to, but come on…..does this really seem like the America you want to live in?

wire tapping hears your conversation. Cell phone tracking can see where are you.

yes there is a difference. Cell phones never where private. If you have a police scanner you can often hear conversations of nearby cellphones.
Now in regards to wire tapping they should be the same. Intercepting a call, and wire tapping are 2 different things.

Cell phone tracking only discloses the LOCATION of a cell phone and is not illegal. Emergency services like the police having been using it for years already.
Wiretapping actually listens in and records your phone calls, and that is illegal without a warrant..
There’s a huge difference.

First of all your reference, Newsweek, has all the credence of the NY Times which has degenerated into a tabloid when it comes to facts. Bush was not the first to use wiretapping or electronic surveilance without a warrant – Bill Clinton did it first and the NY Times called Clinton’s use of it a “necessity”. When Bush used it the NY Times called it an invasion of privacy and illegal.
