Not to downplay this, but the authors "You can track any mobile phone !" claim seems comically overblown. Not everyone has What's App, some people who have it rarely use it, and only knowing when someone's online is a pretty weak form of "tracking".

That said, I agree it's not good that you can spam strangers phone numbers and see when they're online. I'll be turning off that feature on my phone.
