    On tracing a call: The call does not need to be actively going for the trace to work. As soon as it’s made, the call can be traced, whether it’s for 1 hours or 1 second.

      There’s a lot of variables here though right?

      Tracing a call in the 80s is a completely different proposition to doing so now.

      Now it could be done instantly with a database query. Any delay would simply be convincing the telco to perform said query.
