Sounds a little mickey mouse to me....
I think the problem lies with the headline for the article:
"UT Dallas Professor Captures the Mobile Interactions of 175 Texas Teens"
Makes it sound like the Professor built some sort of tower and/or monitoring device and took the information against the will/knowledge of the Blackberry recipient.
A better (truthful?) headline would have read:
"UT Dallas Professor Studies the Mobile Interactions of 175 Texas Teens"
But there are people that are allergic to WiFi signals!
Almost half the households in the world having WiFi will cause all these people to leave populated areas and seek refuge in remote areas!
Nothing but good could come of this

'Detroit' as he refers to are now multi-nationals
OMG no way!
they have their own R&D factories
OMG no way!
In all seriousness, though:
Yes what you said is obviously true, but the idea that because they have their own R&D and have researched this before doesn't mean this company hasn't figured out a better way to do it.
I'm not saying that they have figured out a better way, but to dismiss something as 'oh, well that's been tried before' isn't a good basis
As opposed to FireFox silently downloading auto-updates and asking to restart your browser to install them?
Regardless of whether or not Android is open source, your point about "not invented here" is a mindset in a lot of open source projects. It's unfortunate, but true.
PURGE COMPLETE.
