Sprint has launched a new service called Family Locator that allows parents/guardians to locate family members on a map either via the ‘net or through their phone.
The paranoid / guilty need not worry too much, as the child is notified by text message when a parent is snooping on them. Reports can also be generated via Sprint’s website. I ‘spose ultimately it’ll be better for kids to get in a little trouble for being out too late rather than having parents totally freak out and worry their kids are missing.
The service will be $10 per month for up to 4 phones.
