I know that fitbit thinks this is really cool, but this is really creepy. Everyone who owns a fitbit has doubtless signed off on being part of these kinds of studies if you dig all the way into fitbits EULA, but I bet none of them actually got an email saying "click here to opt in/out". For a lot of fitbit users, they will never see this study and it will never cross their mind that they're being studied. This is why I searched high and low for a fitness tracker that doesn't have an online component. I eventually settled on a garman fitness watch plugged into turtle sport: http://turtlesport.sourceforge.net/EN/home.html http://turtlesport.sourceforge.net/EN/home.html
