GOOGLE'S LATITUDE PHONE TRACKING SYSTEM

Early day motion 1004, tabled 9 March 2009 by Tom Brake (Liberal Democrat). Signed by 28 members.

That this House expresses concern at the new Google phone tracking system called Latitude, which makes available location data on a time-to-time or continuous basis; warns that such a device could substantially endanger user privacy; agrees with Privacy International's report which declares that `Latitude appears to present an immediate privacy threat'; believes that Google has created an unnecessary danger to user privacy; and urges the Government to examine the privacy implications of Google Latitude and to take action to ensure that Latitude does not represent a privacy threat.
