You're using AT&T. You already gave up all privacy rights.

With the current combination of business practices and technology,  privacy is not a "right", it's more of an afterthought or a talking point.

My wife & I just got our smartphones so we've been busy playing with them. In the process of exploring I saw something that concerned me. HTCSense service Terms of Service document in regards to how they handle your personal info and would make available to partners or other third party providers that are in country's that don't honor privacy rights. 


My concerns are that my private info would become unprotected public info. Am I right thinking that? Has anyone setup an account on HTCSense.com? If & when (more likely when) I root this thing is there something available that is similar to HTCSense? I'm mostly interested in the remote device security features.


If anyone has any advice or suggestions for us, we would greatly appreciate it.
