Well, the length of the video and the presentation sytle does tend to weed out a few people. The basic tl;dr :
Want to know where your sister/brother's been to? Steal the plain-view (unencrypted) data from her/his iPhone. Want to know where your spouse's been to? Ditto. And ad-nauseum.

Edited by: Whitehound on 21/04/2011 10:00:10 No harm in such data itself. It can be used both for good and bad. But ... can it tell where I am going next?! --

I don't trust smartphone security at all. Someone posted a video on these forums how Nokia and others put back doors in their phones to make governments happy.

I like these articles because you here from all of these people that think some covert or overt group of ne'er-do-wells really give a **** where YOU have been.
Worried they'll track your Whopper Happy Meal consumption? Or maybe they want to know just how many times you've stopped at the adult bookstore on the way home to "browse."

Because they created that file for s**ts and giggles?
Then of course there are the divorce lawyers, who will now ask if their partner has an iPhone. Makes sense to subpoena the phone in certain proceedings.

If anyone had said 10 years ago "Soon governments and corporations will be able to track your every move", they would have been laughed at that anything so ridiculously mad could ever happen. And now it has happened, no one really gives a ****, because they don't appreciate how bad it is.
Remember to turn your work's blackberry off before you do anything non-work related when out the office, you don't want to get fired now do you.

A) Don't **** around on your partner and it's not a problem 2) It's not just iPhones.

Except that you can block it on an Android system.
Since Google is becoming rather unfriendly about it too, I guess the only cure is to bomb them with random ids/locations to corrupt their database.

So they do care.... Basically you were wrong, but thanks for turning up and giving us all your valuable input.
