[OT] iPhone "leaks like a sieve"

I'll add, since you're feeling so smart and secure...

Reading Usenet is not secure.

Where you'll find the most privacy is MAYBE in your bedroom!

iPhones???

Get real people!!!

Still pure speculation that claims are denied. I already said it is used as
an investigative tool, but there is still no evidence of a claim being
denied. Investigation can shift the blame to an irresponsible party, prove
speeding, etc, but that is different than denying a claim.

Slam into a tree and if proven you are speeding, the insurance company is
till obligated to pay. The recorder just proves you were at fault and in
violation of the traffic laws. When you find one that does not pay, get
back to me.

I don't believe that this is the case, my android phone will transmit
data at random moments and sometimes it appears that someone's taking
control of my phone - I'll find the settings changes.

I have my phone setup to not share my information location, not enable
GPS, not enable background data, and not auto-sync with any application.
I don't allow the bluetooth and the wi-fi to connect automatically.
Heck, I even turn the 3G networks off.

I do this to increase battery life but I also don't like the phone
sending information without my knowledge yet it's obvious to me that
it's doing just that.

My guess is that the dirty little secret about the Android OS is that
it's a huge security risk with so many holes in it that I might have to
find some other OS. The nasty habit of giving so much control to the
apps has to be changed. A lot of the apps that come with the phone can't
be deleted nor can it's settings be changed. It's a total wild wild west
out there in Android land. The shocking thing is that it appears that
hardly anybody seems to be aware of these problems. My guess is that
someday the shit will hit the fan. It's an awful shame that the price
for thumbing our noses at Microsoft and Apple comes at such a high
price.

Doesn't matter which cell phone or service provider!!!

Thanks to the GPS chip in today's cell phones, you can run but you can't
hide.

You can always "opt out" of using cell phones entirely and quit bitching
and Chicken Little preaching about "Big Brother!!!"

I'm not worried whatsoever, considering the uninteresting life I now
live. I especially feel sorry for the life someone else, on the job,
must have listening to it!!!

LOL!

Boring rfc for the past 10+ years!!! :D

Get back to yerself.

If it is not occuring now, you can bet lobbyists are working on it. A
chance for an insurance company to weasel out of paying huge medical
claims? Please!

Computer star maps have been around for a while. This is different.
Google Sky can transpose the star map against the sky. It has to know
the azimuth and degree of tilt of the phone in addition to the GPS
info. It calculates this in real time. Somehow it knows the
orientation of the phone in space. As far as I know, I've never
calibrated the phone.

Or instead of "roll over and die" users can push back when business and

utility of a smartphone you need to bend over and forcibly accept an
anal probe..

Ever notice in the map app, if you tap the blue button (bottom left) the
iPhone will orientate the map in whichever direction you're facing? You DO
need to calibrate the compass to be accurate.
