[B]Sprint[/B]: "We have disabled Carrier IQ and we are no longer collecting data" [url]http://www.bgr.com/2011/12/16/sprint-we-have-disabled-carrier-iq-and-we-are-no-longer-collecting-data/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+TheBoyGeniusReport+%28BGR+%7C+Boy+Genius+Report%29[/url]
HTC Windows Phone master race
Already confimed it through Voodoo CarrierIQ but it's still nice to know.
US only right
Oh fuck my phones on the list. I really hope there's a lawsuit I can get onto
MetroPCS isn't on the list. Doesn't surprise me, the service is too shitty even for Carrier IQ.
[QUOTE=mobrockers2;33751424]That's because apple has already said it has removed it from iPhones. iPhones did have it.[/QUOTE] It apparently recorded a much smaller amount of data to the version of CIQ that was first found on Android phones and it was disabled by default. Apple removing it didn't have much effect, compared to HTC or such that recorded every keystroke.
[B]Sprint nuke Carrier IQ[/B] [QUOTE] Thanking Sprint for turning off Carrier IQ's invisible spy software seems a bit like thanking someone for no longer pissing on your leg at a picnic, but, hey kudos to them for doing the right thing. Way too late. Sprint confirmed to MobileBurn that diagnostic data will no longer be collected across its 26 million devices that were currently being tapped: "We have weighed customer concerns and we have disabled use of the tool so that diagnostic information and data is no longer being collected. We are further evaluating options regarding this diagnostic software as well as Sprint's diagnostic needs." That does, however, leave the future undecided; if Sprint is "evaluating options" regarding Carrier IQ, that means they might flip the switch back on again. Please, please leave the switch off, Sprint. This was not a good look for you. [MobileBurn] [/QUOTE]
