yes, but there's a big difference between that and tracking me.
what makes you think that this won't be abused.
Changing IMEI is illegal only in some countries of the EU, not all.

L.E. : we're going off-topic, and I think we should stop, I just wanted to state this, not to go in to a debate, it's everybody right and opinion, I personally, have nothing to hide so they can track me down as much as they want, but at a certain point they might cross the line, since they've already started.
