Addictgamer Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 All I have to say is this better not lead to a flame war. Anyway, my opinion? Many more companies and governments will begin/have begun doing similar things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Acmex Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Chances are, if you read through most EULAs now (minus the CC/GPL) a similar clause will be included. The only way to get around it is to use GPL'd software not use the stuff that contains those clauses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDeath Posted June 22, 2010 Author Share Posted June 22, 2010 well all companies track what we do online (tracking cookies) apple is just taking it a step further. but anyone with a gps enabled phone is being tracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted June 23, 2010 Share Posted June 23, 2010 Anyone who has a cell phone can be tracked. What makes you think GPS is a requirement for that? Apple is just stating that they will be using that to service you (as the customer) better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aki Dazrold Posted June 24, 2010 Share Posted June 24, 2010 Apple. Give it two years. It will be known at that time as "Skynet". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zjean Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Ah crap. I need to start stockpiling guns then. But if you have a cell phone, it doesn't matter if you also have some type of Apple thing on you as well. Cells can already be tracked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 Not only cell phones, but anything with wifi, bluetooth, or internet connection can be tracked as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Aki Dazrold Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 I swear. If I could get my hands on the kind of technology that is capable of that, my life would be so much easier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Amauros Posted June 25, 2010 Share Posted June 25, 2010 You mean so you could find your phone/itouch/etc when you lose them, or so you could do something a little more devious? :P Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
