"Calm down dear, it's only an App!" to paraphrase Michael Winner I'm aware that if you're not paying for a service then you're the product, and that the money has to come from somewhere once the venture capitalists start turning the screws to get some return on their investment.

My issue is the mining of personal information that is not that of the person agreeing to be mined as it were. If I were to agree that to use a service my information might be used to receive targeted advertising, then all well and good, but what of all else ? Business phones do contain information that is confidential and proprietorial to that company/industry, yet within limits that is up for grabs as well, it would seem
