That type of situation I would agree with the product. Catching the cheating spouse, while hilarious, it would in fact be cheaper than hiring an investigator and what not. Regardless of these situations though, I personally think its going too far with the availability of information they can track with a single push of a button. People have a right to their individual privacy and this app would only infringe upon their rights. As you had mentioned about the information getting into the wrong hands, I can think of no better worst case scenario. Having that information hijacked can easily help criminals whether they be thieves, stalkers or even pedophiles. Needless to say, I think its too risky an app. While it may have good intentions the potential risks involved are just too high.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
