    Oh yeah, it was normal in the US for a while.

    In fact, it’s used as a plot device in lots of old movies where detectives (or the Terminator) are trying to track someone down.

      I was totally coming to mention how much of a security risk these were if you had to run from Terminators.

          Yeah if that movie was made in modern times, Sarah Connor’s roommate would have tagged her in some thirst-trap pics on Instagram with geotagging trackers. She’d never stand a chance.
