Why is Carrier IQ being made the villain here? From what I understand, they provide a service which has been abused by the phone manufacturers probably in conjunction with the carriers.
Logitech makes web-cams, would you hold them responsible if you found them hidden in hotel rooms and they were put there based on request by the CIA?
Let us hold the right people responsible. That will mean Apple, HTC, Samsung, RIM etc.
- hsshah 15y agoIt's not a proper comparison. Using your analogy, Logitech should be held more liable if the video streams from the webcams were uploaded to Logitech's server. Would you agree?
- OoTheNigerian 15y agoIt is a proper comparison but not complete. Your server addition completes it. I would direct my anger at the hotel who I have a contract and relationship with.
