    Been talking about this for years–before I had a phone, before anyone I know had a phone. Undoubtedly they are a great convenience, but damn; we’re just blindly investing more of our lives (literally) into these things every month or so when a new device comes out (and we rush to get it), ignoring the fact that they are essentially GPS/tracking nodes: you can be found anywhere, anytime, by anyone really trying to find you. The companies developing these phones work with government agencies.

    Its more about not being ignorant about who installs or what you install on your phone/computer/anything. I haven’t had a virus, malware, spyware in years because I’m smart and take precautions.

    Simple, get a new phone without using your information. Sometimes per-paid is good.

    I know I made friends with a co-worker I got a message from a friend /fellow worker saying she wanted my email so we could chat. I thought it strange (I’m 60). She got stranger and stranger. I discovered that her Boy friend was pretending to be her and he hacked into my/other computers and tried to hack my daughters. His web site was full of porn. Hello! He was a 16 year old pervert! I called the cops and they were upset I was chatting with a woman! Cops=stupid BUT his mom was pissed at him!
