Tracing a mobile or mobile phone is actually only possible for private individuals after software has been installed on the mobile that they want to trace. You must therefore first have owned the mobile phone and put certain software on it before tracing is possible. The tracking is then done by a command after which the mobile phone turns on the GPS receiver to 'see' where that view is and then sends the location by text or internet. It is also possible with some mobile phone tracking software to set a certain interval of the GPS position, such as 1 x per hour.
Mobile tracing individuals:
Tracing mobile phones without having put software on them in advance is not possible in the Netherlands for private individuals. This has several reasons, but mainly has to do with the fact that the providers do not disclose the location of the GSM masts. Only investigative authorities gain access to this information and can thus track a mobile by measuring which GSM towers the mobile phone connects to.
On our website in the category spy-phones we offer telephones with all this tracking software installed. However, the software has much more functionalities than just tracing a mobile phone and can, for example, record the incoming and outgoing calls unnoticed.

Mobile tracing government:
The government naturally has more options for tracing a mobile. The option of a GSM interceptor system described above is the least used of these and only in cases where the person from whom they want to listen to the GSM conversations always changes their number and device, but they do know where they live or reside.
The most used method of mobile tracing by the government is simply through the provider. Providers must, by order of an order issued by a supervisory judge, grant access to a customer's calling data. This can consist of both the call traffic, text messages and internet usage. Although in comparison with other countries the Netherlands is very much used, this is only allowed officially when it is in proportion to what the governmental body is trying to demonstrate.
Protect your cell phone against eavesdropping:
The idea that changing a SIM card and telephone prevents listening to a cell phone by the police, the judiciary or otherwise is not correct. This has to do with the fact that call groups are set up in a study, where everyone who calls to someone from that group more than x times is added to the list of cell phone numbers being monitored.
There are also mobile phones for sale that change numbers when making a new call. Although it saves time to buy a new mobile phone, this has no added value.
The only completely safe way to make calls without being eavesdropped is through the use of cryptophones that encrypt the conversation. A major disadvantage of this product is that it only works if both the person calling and being called have the same cryptophone.
