Yeah well you just proved my point...you weren't advertised to by google initially, you found it on your own. Which is exactly how they wanted it.



The government ALREADY IS LOOKING IN ON ME. I know this for a fact, but they aren't literally looking in on me, they can if they want to, but they have no reason to unless I'm a terroist. Google has every reason to do so, because they use the data for market research not for public safety. Something I think should be bloody illegal.



This is true. But my point is that google is over-reaching by requiring your location and daily schedule.


Let this be said, I do trust Google, but they're trigger happy when it comes to market research which leads me to believe that have much broader ambitions as a company. And by the way most of what I said is indisputable fact not a theory, anything that is theory I clearly say "it would lead me to believe that...." and then I arrive at a conclusion. My theories and facts are clearly outlined in the above statement.


Let me just say that I do not use microsoft myphone for the same reasons I don't use Android.
Absolutely, this is now my favorite thread

I think both you and I are throwing out ideas that both have great merit, By the way, my daughter already has a HTC Hero, she's in high school and all her friends want one!! HA HA

You understand that word-of-mouth is the most POWERFUL advertisement period. Good/bad/ugly. The only way we can remain anonymous is to dis-connect ourselves from electronic devices use cash and work under the table for cash!

Remember we all have social security numbers!!

Anyway this is a great topic I especially like when you say why I MIGHT never buy and not say I will NEVER buy...

We have nothing to fear but fear it self (and Google)
