- W120898137 abstract "The FCC's E-911 mandate, which will ensure that emergency operators automatically receive a caller's location information, should help save lives. However, privacy advocates have expressed concern over the potential for wireless carriers, the government, and third parties to collect and store personal information. Congress has addressed these concerns with legislation, but privacy advocates still worry that consumers are not adequately protected. This Note addresses this concern and argues that in order to ensure consumer protection, additions are needed to section 222 of the Telecommunications Act of 1996. The Note discusses the importance of individual privacy and balances it against the benefits of location technology. The Note then suggests regulatory changes that should both protect consumers and allow this technology to continue to develop. I. INTRODUCTION II. PRIVACY LAW ORIGINS AND THE POTENTIAL FOR HARM IN THE COLLECTION OF PERSONAL LOCATION INFORMATION III. LEGAL HISTORY OF FEDERAL REGULATION FOR CELL PHONE LOCATION INFORMATION A. Telecommunications Act of 1996 and U.S. West v. FCC B. Wireless Communication and Public Safety Act of 1999 C. Federal Trade Commission's Unfair and Deceptive Act IV. PROBLEMS WITH CURRENT REGULATION MECHANISMS V. NEW AMENDMENTS TO SECTION 222 OF THE 1996 ACT ARE NEEDED VI. CONCLUSION I. INTRODUCTION After a snowmobile accident broke his neck, back, ribs, and bruised his lung, Brent Alvut managed to dial 911 from his cellular phone. (1) The global positioning system (GPS) technology integrated within his cellular phone allowed the 911 operator to immediately pinpoint Alvut's location and save his life. (2) Many were not as fortunate as Brent. In 1993, eighteen year old Jennifer Koon called 911 from her cell phone, however, she was unable to tell the dispatcher her location. (3) The dispatcher listened helplessly ... as Koon was raped and killed. (4) In 2001, a thirty-two year-old woman drove off of the Florida Turnpike, into a canal. (5) As her car was sinking, she dialed 911. (6) She talked to the dispatcher for over three minutes but did not know her exact location. (7) Rescuers were unable to find her before she died. (8) Stories abound of men, women, and children who were stranded in places unknown; who were trapped under the September 11th rubble; who were abducted; who were lost in the snow; and others who were carried away by the tsunami in Southeast Asia. All found themselves in a place they could not describe, and many could have been saved had their location been immediately known. In the United States, there are nearly 200,000 911 calls made by cell phones every day. (9) In response, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) has developed a set of regulations called Enhanced 911 (E-911) that require wireless carriers to identify the location of the caller's cellular phone for the delivery of emergency services. (10) Once E-911 is fully implemented, emergency operators will automatically receive the callers' location without wasting valuable time seeking information from a caller who may not be able to sufficiently describe their location. (11) By December 31, 2005, wireless carriers must ensure that 95% of their subscribers have cellular phones with location-tracking technology. (12) This will complete the four-year rollout of the FCC's wireless E-911 program. The E-911 program will undoubtedly save lives, and wireless carriers are using cell phone location information for alternative services. (13) Location Based Services (LBS) have already and will continue to add many benefits to our lives. Some employers already use the technology to keep track of their employees, and some parents use it to keep an eye on their children. (14) Despite the many benefits, privacy advocates have expressed concern over the potential to collect, store, and analyze every place individuals go with their cell phone. …" @default.
