An Apple a day?

[Methusala]

No, Methusala, this is not the same as the carrier having a record that is only available with a warrant. In the case of Apple, it's unencrypted data stored on the device. Apple may "may collect, use, and share precise location data, including the real-time geographic location of your Apple computer or device."

This is new to you? I admire you for taking the time to read and study the U.S. Constitution, and that tells me that you are also cautious enough to read and study your cell phone contract with your carrier, and the shrink-wrap contracts enclosed with any piece of hardware and software, including the one from your cell phone maker.

You did read that, didn't you? Including the part in every shrink-wrap contract which gives you the right to return the product for a full refund within (X) days if you don't agree with its terms after opening the package and finding therein the contract and reading it?

And what does this have to do with worrying about the government taking away your guns? These are private contracts entered into by you, a private citizen, with a private corporation!

You're not advocating that the government should issue more regulations against these private corporations, are you? Have you become an advocate for more government regulation?
