I logged into GTalk on my iPhone recently looking for a friend and noticed a new Buzz link. Curious, I tapped on it and it told me “Safari Would Like to Use Your Current Location”. Anything that wants to automatically use my GPS location when I don’t expect it to creeps me out, [...]

While in Hong Kong, I did some sightseeing with some American friends who were part of our group. They hadn’t been in Hong Kong before and my Hong Kong born friend had introduced them to the Octopus card so everyone in our group got this prox card (by paying a deposit), which is a [...]
