Palm Pre Reports Your Location and Usage To Palm

[raynejarre]

Although, I definatly don't agree with tracking, technically by using the Pre, you did agree to it. Part of the package of using the Pre is signing the EULA and establishing an account when you first activate the phone, inside the EULA it states:

"may collect, store, access, disclose, transmit, process and otherwise use your location data (including real time geographic information) in accordance with Palm's privacy policy."

While I agree Palm shouldn't be doing it, it isn't one of those things you can say is "Without consent"... Hopefully Palm will take heed of the heat from the community, and quickly provide an opt-out feature though.
