These aren't security flaws. It is malware.Most apps have security flaws if one is so inclined to find and exploit them. A friend of mine has his own "lab" as he calls it for the purpose of finding security flaws in electronics. He is basically a guy who has made so much money in computer networking with backend contract payments that he never has to work again and does this stuff as a hobby. He finds these exploits and then usually notifies the companies to make them aware of it.
That these things run as malware is a security flaw in the OS. Even readers have security holes in them apparently that allow malware to gather info.
Yep. Never understood that whole smartphone craze myself. Guess I'm a Luddite. lol I'll have to check out my son's Iphone though. . .
I have a smartphone (Android os) can't imagine not having one now, just too many conveniences .
Oh yeah, I have a flashlight app, have to check this out.
Give me an example of one "convenience."
The flashlight is one.
The GPS is another.
Internet access where ever you are is another.
Music is another.
A handy camera (still & video) is yet another.
If you have a small business you can get the app & accessory to swipe credit or debit cards.
Access to videos is another.
E-books is yet another.
Those are just a few of the conveniences.

I had no idea the i phones were so versatile! I am surprised at all I have learned about them on this thread! Thank you everyone! What an age we are living in, eh?

I don't and won't own an iphone ever. If you gave me one, I would put it on ebay.

Am 43 and have yet to ever needed a portable phone. They're useful for certain professions sure, but by and large average people don't need them and they're dangerous. How many have died and will continue to die because some self-important piece of crap was doing something on their phone instead of watching where they're driving? Should make that premeditated murder and execute those people. You knew it was illegal, you knew why, you did it anyway and someone died. Off with your head!

I have been using a mobile phone as my primary phone since 2001. The advances in the technology have made them much more convenient. Since my work took me on the road most of the time, it was a necessity for me.
As for using them while driving, I don't. I will take a call and either tell them I will call them back or make it a VERY short call. The hands-free feature is no safer than holding the phone to your ear.
I have a flip top phone for emergencies but I changed the number and do not give it out. So it does not ring. ha! ha!
I have no desire to use the thing. I do not even like a land line. I would not even have this one except that my husband insisted I have one, Misterbeale. Phones are highly over rated. I prefer email.
"I have a flip top phone for emergencies but I changed the number"
well you don't want the devil to get your number!!
I hear the devil can come through your internet connection wires too!!

2000-APR: USA: Book published about computer possession: Reverend Jim Peasboro of Savannah GA has written a book "The Devil in the Machine: Is your computer possessed by a demon?" Some of the points raised in the book by the author are:
[TBODY] [/TBODY]
"While the Computer Age has ushered in many advances, it has also opened yet another door through which Lucifer and his minions can enter and corrupt men's souls." Demons can possess anything with a brain, including a chicken, a human being, or a computer. "Any PC built after 1985 has the storage capacity to house an evil spirit." "...most of the youths involved in school shootings like the tragedy at Columbine were computer buffs...I have no doubt that computer demons exerted an influence on them." an estimated "...one in 10 computers in America now houses some type of evil spirit." "Christian Technicians can replace the hard drive and reinstall the software, getting rid of the wicked spirit permanently."

I have my phone set up to sense when I am in the car. If I get a call it automatically hangs up and sends a text back to the person telling them I am driving and will call them back. If the call is from someone I dont know then it just hangs up.Yep. Never understood that whole smartphone craze myself. Guess I'm a Luddite. lol I'll have to check out my son's Iphone though. . .

One of the things about going out for a walk used to be getting away from the annoyance of phones. Just about everyone here who walks for exercise is staring down at their phone. It's pathetic. Used to be you said hello to neighbors seeing em walking around, now you're afraid to intrude or interupt.

I have to tell you, Delta. You are right. I am astonished at how many people are totally absorbed in their cellphones. I was in a lobby at a hospital waiting to visit someone when I noticed that for the first time. Everyone in the lobby had their heads down scrolling through their phones. I was amazed.
Eventually someone looked my way and I began to share Jesus Christ and soon many of the people in the lobby were listening intently on the matter of eternity and where they would be - so forth - I'm believing the seeds planted that day were watered by other Christians - it is a great opportunity to share the LORD anytime people are waiting and wasting time - as in looking at a screen on a cell phone! People need solitude - a walk in the country should be a walk in the country - not listening to Ms. Yackety Yack while walking down the road!
Why anyone who considers themselves decent even has an Apple product boggles the mind given the factories where they're made. You know, the ones with such deplorable conditions workers commit suicide so often they had to put nets around the perimeter to catch em as they lept out windows.
Revealed Inside Apple s Chinese sweatshop factory where workers are paid just 1.12 per hour Daily Mail Online
18 Chinese workers have killed themselves as of that story. And these were Chinese workers sopresumedly they're used to hard working ocnditions so just how bad does it have to be to make Chinese nationals kill themselves?

Some people use their phone a lot. Some people less so.
It boils down to what each person chooses to do. I enjoy a walk in the country or in my neighborhood with peace & quiet. But I am not so egotistical as to tell others how they should enjoy their walk. Some simply want the exercise. They get that, whether they have a phone in their hand or not.
My phone is pretty valuable to me. I do 90% of my business by phone. Not to mention it also functions as a camera/video recorder, music player, and book reader.
