Cheating Partner? Catch Them Using GPS Tracking by donrichdavid: 2:46pm On Nov 13, 2012
As various types of mobile technology grow in popularity, creative uses are becoming increasingly common, and this is certainly true for GPS tracking. Once restricted to use by the military alone, GPS technology is now widely available through a number of devices and applications, and is frequently used to track professional fleets, packages, and other items. Recently, GPS tracking has become a fairly favored way to keep track of children or travelers who embark on potentially dangerous journeys, and in connection with keeping an eye on people, GPS tracking has been suggested for use in certain stealth operations. There are a number of reasons why a given person might want to spy on another, and perhaps one of the most common is to verify the truthfulness of information regarding a second party's location or activities. Specifically, some people may be interested in catching their romantic partner “cheat” by having an affair or undesirable encounter with another person. Though GPS tracking may be better suited to a range of other tracking tasks, it may, in some cases, assist with catching dishonest partners.

No matter the purpose for which GPS tracking is being used, it can call serious privacy concerns into question. In fact, many people are opposed to the use of GPS tracking either by organizations and governments or private citizens because of the potential for abuse and the invasion of others' privacy. When GPS tracking is used in order to keep watch over the movements and location of another person without their knowledge or consent, it must be pointed out that their privacy is being infringed upon. Whether a person interested in using GPS tracking for such a purpose is comfortable with invading the privacy of another or imagines that the situation somehow justifies such an invasion is, of course, up to the individual, however it's important to note that for many people, being tracked in such a manner could be considered highly offensive, or even hostile.
Privacy concerns aside, it's certainly possible to keep track of another person with the help of GPS tracking tools. Some of the more obvious GPS tracking devices, such as wrist watches and specially-equipped mobile phones may not be the best choices, as they make the intention to track fairly obvious. There are a number of tracking devices meant to operate in a stealthy manner, such as through being sewn into clothing or other common belongings, but it may be extraordinarily easy for people to locate such devices and remove them before they're able to be useful. Perhaps the most feasible form of GPS tracking device for those intent on catching a cheating partner is the type of model crafted for use on a vehicle. Depending on the type of device used, the placement of the unit itself may be able to be concealed, and as power is typically drawn from the vehicle's battery, there's seldom any need to recharge the device or otherwise attend to it personally once it's installed. The method of communication between the device and its user can vary, and information is typically transmitted either to a phone or to a computer, with different degrees of complexity that may involve maps, beacons, or simple location notifications.
An essential consideration for people interested in keeping track of a lover suspected of cheating is the fact that a GPS tracking device cannot tell the entire story of a partner's circumstances. While users may believe that the fact their partner was in a different location than was indicated suggests they were cheating, and a GPS device can confirm that a discrepancy in locations occurred, no degree of detailed maps or beacons can prove that an individual has committed a given deed beyond appearing at a certain place at a certain time. As romantic partners may be quick to make judgments about the activities of lovers, using GPS tracking devices with caution is wise. Partners may wish to confront lovers about discrepancies in location information or may wish to follow up with friends or acquaintances that may have more information before making a decision as to whether a lover's story is to be believed.
There are many different possible uses for modern GPS tracking technology, many of which can be highly useful for safety and security purposes. Still other uses cater more to personal curiosities and preoccupations, and keeping track of romantic partners certainly falls into this category. While catching a potentially cheating partner can be assisted with a well-chosen GPS tracking device, staying aware of privacy and evidence-based concerns is important to prevent unwanted abuses of trust, to ensure that false accusations aren't made, and to keep GPS tracking from becoming an unreliable and possibly dangerous tool.
