who cares?
I sure as fuck don't.
Oh, boo hoo. It's Slashdot's fault you couldn't scroll past the story instead of spending 20 seconds plus CAPTCHA to say you don't care. I don't like FireFox, Windows 7, or Google, so I'm going to go into their threads and post that I don't care and get modded up for it.
thanks for telling me (Score:2, Insightful)
that iBart is "spying" sorry "analytics" on its users by sending who-knows-what-else data
to a third party
if this behaviour was on Windows app it would be condemmed instantly
and users would demand they stop it [uneasysilence.com]
i wonder how many other of the iPhone apps spy on its "users"

FFS - we do expect certain standards here. And if that's too much to ask, at least a little self-respect from Taco. Fanboism is one thing, but posting this on main page?
Slashdot is ad-driven. Bitching about a story is supporting the story. Ask where it's helpful to ask instead of asking where the opposite of what you want will happen. There are far too many stories about Google here for you to not understand how this works.
