Switching a phone to vibrate so it acts as a trembler detonator or getting around the lack of coverage on the Tube by using the alarm clock function is not exactly the hall-mark of the high-tech terror network we are constantly being told about.
So could we have a bit less hysteria about the "mobiles used to set-off bombs" issue please?
Incidentally, I am not actually a terrorist, nor in the business of advising them, but if I can work it out so can anyone else. It isn't the technology that sets itself up to kill people; it's other people who don't like the things you do.
