that is great! really! if another dozen of cases like this happen, maybe, just maybe, people will wake up and stop installing apps with ridiculous permissions.

that is great! really! if another dozen of cases like this happen, maybe, just maybe, people will wake up and stop installing apps with ridiculous permissions. That's one of the reasons i use CyanogenMod. i can disable permissions from apps. For example, i removed internet access from swype. It does crash everytime i reboot my phone, because it's probably trying to check for updates, and i know it will crash if it tries to connect while i'm typing. and i rather that then be in the dark if my data is secure.
