Motorola Is Listening

New submitter pbritt writes "Ben Lincoln was hooking up to Microsoft ActiveSync at work when he 'made an interesting discovery about the Android phone (a Motorola Droid X2) which [he] was using at the time: it was silently sending a considerable amount of sensitive information to Motorola, and to compound the problem, a great deal of it was over an unencrypted HTTP channel.' He found that photos, passwords, and even data about his home screen config were being sent regularly to Motorola's servers. He has screenshots showing much of the data transmission."

I don't let anyone with an apple device in my room or touch my network because they are usually too unintelectual to even know what privacy is and don't have a clue why i call them iSheeps or whatever. But you're damn wrong about this one because it can be verified with minimal security knowledge and there are always good security researchers out there that use insecure devices including apple iDevices.They already found this, even if it's too late.
