Last century saw more inventions than the whole recorded history of mankind.

We tend to believe that computer tech world is the one that's seeing the most progress. Nothing can be further from the truth! Health and medicinal world is the one with the most new discoveries. And it's not really surprising if you read the medical magazines.

Probably the biggest discovery of all is the discovery of stem cells, but this doesn't mean that Electronics sector has completely stalled either. There is a remarkable rise of new developments in the sector. Alas, some of these developments have been linked to controversy! A good example of this is reverse telephone number lookup. Before the digital version of the reverse phone lookup or the 411 service you had to manually lookup the phone number in a telephone directory. It made the task almost impossible to perform (especially for those who lived in highly populated areas). What was once a nearly impossible task can now be done in mere seconds. Just go to any of the web-sites that offers the service (National Number Search) type in your telephone number and almost immediately you will have the information that you were looking for.

Today you can run reverse phone lookups directly from the comfort of your own home. Simply visit a web-site like:National Cell Directory NSU enter the phone number and voila. Information like the first and last name of the user and address is readily available. In the case of cell phone lookup you might get even more information. For example if the carrier supports this feature you might be able to get the actual location of an individual to whom the number belongs!

Potential benefits of a reverse number lookup are innumerable. Prank calls and harassment calls can now be traced and reported to authorities. Running a toll free number check can tell you the name of the company that was calling. Or maybe you just want to send your favourite uncle a Christmas present, but only have his phone number, well now you can quickly get the address that goes with it too.

Unfortunately the bad guys can take advantage of the situation as well. A sexual predator might use this to find the address of his victim.

In any case, even if some bad guys decide to use reverse phone lookup, it remains a very useful service, which we should all have access to. Their bad deeds should not prevent us from enjoying this service. In my opinion banning reverse phone look up, would be like banning forks, just because someone can use it as a weapon.
