Over 25000 Korean iPhone users demand 1 million won (930$) from Apple... It is ridiculous... If you use a landline, everyone knows where you are!

Yeah, the plural of won stays still a won. Monetary multiplication doesn't work on neither side of the peninsula...

How is that true? I can call someone from a pay phone in town and they won't know where I am. Beyond that, there's a reasonable expectation of this since you're in a fixed location; there's no reasonable need to have people tracked with their phones if they're using a mobile device.
