-------Original Email------- Subject :[OSM-talk] China alledgedly using cctv to catch people using GPSdevices... >From :mailto:deltafoxtrot...@gmail.com Date :Sat Jan 08 16:31:14 America/Chicago 2011 China CCTV ratchets up the paranoia in this report re domestic neogeographic activity, including using GPS devices.
