What a complete load of rubbish. Please show some proof. What's the application name? How does it run? So if I use the EPT in a hotel using the same wifi and public IP as 1000 other people they'll track us all? Please also tell me how EK would know the IP we are accessing prune with or does pprune also have a tracking device that sends that to EK?
As for the webcam in the flight deck, have you ever tried to connect in there? The signal is poor and even at best it's a slow satellite signal. Are you proposing all 4500 EPT's are uploading 14 hours of video via a satellite wifi connection to some enormous server where an army of individuals all watch us talk about girls and moan about rosters?
Come on guys, yes it's not as good as an iPad but we have bigger issues than this. Keep wearing the tin hats!
