Are satellite phones traceable?

Yes they can, and I honestly don't see a problem with the government knowing whom I call and what I say. We at least live in the United States where we can not be charged unfairly. Unless the phone is encrypted, it can be traced. Good luck getting an encrypted phone however, unless you work in any kind of major illegal operation?

Naive

Amazingly naive arent you?, the mantra of if I have nothing to hide why worry about the laws that restrict the freedom...live somewhere it does, want that or need that freedom and u will understand. Its okay for the government to want to (as you say) "hide" there calls or businesses etc, but its wrong for the private citizens who's rights aren't ambigious but constitutional to want the same?
