By Way Of Lawsuit, The Location FUD Creeps Up On Android As Well

About a week and a half ago, I wrote a post defending Apple against the location FUD being spread. Due to some real, but minor issues (which have already been resolved) Apple was at the center of this. Then the focus immediately seemed to shift towards Google. If Apple is "watching you" with the iPhone, Google must be as well with Android devices, right? Sure ? if you're a paranoid looney who doesn't really understand what the situation is. Naturally, that group includes the United States government. In an effort for some lawmakers to attach their names to these highly publicized complaints and companies, they've called upon executives to testify before Congress. On Tuesday, those companies will head to a panel in Washington to answer questions. In other words, Congress will be getting a Location 101 briefing.
