Just an interesting thought...
Have any of you ever had a tech or know of a tech look at the CIQ data to solve a problem? I doubt it.

We had information about CIQ for over a year already...our Epics had CIQ and devs(ACS) looked into it and had it removed 1-2 months after the Epic came out.
Effectively by default its off, but the carrier can switch it on remotely...it can theoretically monitor all data

I think it DOES have to do with Google. Googles interest in Android is financial and their way of making money is based on information. The more information Google can obtain, catalog, and use, the more money they make.
Its going to be very interesting to follow how this pans out.

Google has nothing to do with it... hence why the Nexus Google phones don't have CIQ...If Google wanted to do something like this, they don't need companies like CIQ, they could just build it into Android...(if they wanted to)...see Google has their own development team and they can make whatever they want, Carriers like Sprint and AT&T on the other hand dn't have developers so they hire people like CIQ and others to make apps for them.
