So even more reason to flash your droid with CyanogenMod or custom ROM of your choice.
There is still a level of trust required, you shift from trusting your tele-operator to trusting the Cyanogen-mod people.
To be honest, the best, relatively doable way, is to compile the ROM yourself. It's not that hard, XDA Developers has great information on how to do so. Sure, in this case you need to trust google but in the previous cases you need to trust google + teleoperator, or google + cyanogen mod devs.
Lets not forget that your operator can track your calls quite easily even without software.
I'd be interested in a list of operators that use this software, and an explanation as to what they are using it for, and how they verify that it isn't used for spying on people.
