    I hope so. Im sure Verizon and other carriers know about carrier IQ. Without the option to opt out,that is stealing, personal information at that. Yetverizon doesn't want you "stealing" wireless tether. Seems they are allowing us to have info taken from us unwilling or unknowingly. I could be wrong who knows.

    I'm running Gingervitus on the TB, does this automatically remove any Carrier IQ crap?

    How come news outlets aren't picking this up? They made a big deal when Apple was logging information. Congress really needs to address information collecting through the Internet by private companies. Facebook, Google, Apple, Verizon, and apparently this Carrier IQ track our lives through the internet. IMO, it's an egregious invasion of personal privacy. A line needs to be drawn.

    According to an article on androidpolice.com this morning NO Verizon Wireless devices have Carrier IQ installed on them.

    Josh top from theverge sent a tweet to vzw rep and they responded. They apparently don't use it. Well see how the tests pan out. I believe vz though. I can't see to many carriers blatantly violating peoples privacy like that.
