That sounds like something Apple would do. I think they should be more upfront about it, and set the default to "disabled" like most other phones with GPS do.

That sounds like something Apple would do. I think they should be more upfront about it, and set the default to "disabled" like most other phones with GPS do. While it would be very useful to know where people are and what programs they are using, this should be weighed against the (arguably) more important privacy concern.
- jmtulloss 17y agoIt is disabled by default, you have to explicitly enable it when you first use the phone.
- teeja 17y agoDoes it explicitly tell you want it's going to be sending on a daily basis?
- jmtulloss 17y agoFor the location stuff, yes.
- dickwad 17y agoI don't have a pre, but I want to get to the bottom of this. The interwebs is saying that this is enabled by default, not by user prompt. Can you clear up my confusion? It's a propmt when you first turn on the phone? Does the carrier maybe turn it on before sending the phone (for some carriers) causing the confusion?
