We, as customers, are being raped by the corporations.. No dinner, no movies, no candles, no Vaseline.
The sad thing is, many of the people here are part of the problem.
- minikites 12y agoA software bug is not on the same level as being violently sexually assaulted. You are part of a much larger problem.
- mariusz79 12y agoSoftware bug? Do you really believe that this is software bug? It logs location many thousands of times every day and nobody noticed that?
- gleenn 12y agoYour metaphor is pretty harsh but I agree with your sentiment. All these mobile apps need more granular security features, which Google almost released, and the EFF was dying for, but then Google quickly retracted it. Very unfortunate. A keyboard does not need to know your location. Nor do half of the damn apps in my phone. It should be easy to make your phone lie to the app and tell it where ever you want. Same with my contacts.

- Loughla 12y agoYes, it is. And yet there are two Samsung phones in my home that come pre-loaded with it. Ergo, free. It honestly never dawned on me that someone would pay for Swype.
- icebraining 12y agoBy that logic, Windows and Mac OS X are also free. Swype is bundled, not free. You paid for it by buying the device; it's part of its features.
