Privacy: A Thing of the Past
Sometimes it shocks me to think that people believe that privacy actually still exist these days. Apparently cell phone users are finding out that sending a MMS may just not be going to the intended recipient. A story posted today by Moco News, shared that an anti spam company mailchannels found that the UK’s O2 was leaking its customers MMS out onto the web. With a simple Goggle search, mailchannels found multiple pictures and videos online that were sent by O2’s customers.
Extended research by another company, Slashdot, found that both Sprint and Boost Mobile customers are experiencing a similar situation. In fact, not only can the image the customer sent be found online, but also the phone number where it was sent from.
Remember, nothing on the internet is private. So before you take that picture with your mobile and send it off to your “someone special”, you may want to think twice. Or be willing to come up with a really great excuse as to why those photos of you are on the web. Remember, “I was young” and “They were meant to be art” have already been used a time or two.

The Delay of the Android
The Wall Street Journal reports today that Google’s plan to launch their Android-based handset has been delayed. Initially the company said that the handsets would be available during Q2 of this year, but now it looks like the launch has been pushed back until Q4. With that being said, carriers who had hoped to launch their Android-based handset this year are finding themselves looking into the future.
T-Mobile USA is expected to launch this year, while both the Sprint Nextel Corp. and China Mobile, who planned on delivering their Android phones this year as well, will have to sit tight until 2009 due to the amount of time T-Mobile is requiring.
Well, it looks like Google just may be human after all. Kind of makes your Monday a little better, doesn’t it?
