Apple have merely highlighted the fact that Cell phones have started to erode our own privacy further. The terms and conditions are there for anyone to see. What's sad is that people are focusing on this, and not the fact that operators track our every location. Every time you download an app that uses GPS, you are putting yourself at risk of being tracked. Very few people actually read the terms and conditions because they are eager to get the latest software.

All disputes aside... all apple users and all other users have to agree that this is obviously a lie that this is a just now descovered bug. Please. No told u so involved or anything.

Is this about being self-important, or is this about a company crossing the line when it comes to privacy? Geez, the phone keeps on tracking you even AFTER YOU TURN THE FEATURE OFF.

Or you were employed as a menial (maybe a cleaner) & weren't trusted to know what every department in these companies were doing.
There are documented cases here in the UK where police have used evidence obtained from mobile carriers to pinpoint where & when text messages were sent from a mobile in order to convict.
Kieran Grieve is a famous example. He killed his girlfriend & sent bogus texts from her mobile in an attempt to convince police she was still alive. They used tracking data to prove that the texts were sent from his home & not from the city centre as he was claiming. This was all several months after she died.
How else did they know this if the carrier wasn't tracking & storing his location data?

A magic fix which is gonna secretly remove all data collect before enough fanboys remove the controversial files. No doubt the software 'fix' is gonna implement further tracking algorithms. Pathetic. Poor fanboys,how many times a year are they conned in every conceivable day by their apple gods
