"They can't really hang it off their belt because it's too big and unwieldy, it's a solid slab in their pocket, so the phone migrates to less and less convenient locations."

My Galaxy note 3 is huge compared to my old iphone, but fits in my pocket perfectly comfortably.
"are you expecting us to believe that you genuinely don't understand the fears of those in this forum who oppose your optimistic view of the way data collected on customers of these services will be used?"

>Remember when people used to say that about GPS-enabled cell phones?
No
>Now every cell phone is GPS-enabled.

Go to settings and turn "GPS" to off?
Stop being a luddite?
"Oh noes, GPS. Now I can tell where I am on a map. "
How horrible.
So then don't buy and install these products.
"I don't think he's put the files out for you to play it on your OR."
