Unbelievably, the man convicted of being responsible for the greatest disaster in Scotland, is possibly being released on ‘compassionate grounds’ of all things!
BBC NEWS | UK | Scotland | Lockerbie bomber ‘to be released’.
This comes back a lot – we know people are basically not honest, that lying is taught to us by our parents from an early age. Robert Feldman’s latest study shows that even when we don’t have an agenda, we lie around 12 times per 10 minutes – and these are just the lies we are willing to admit to! Should we have an agenda, we will happily lie with a much greater frequency.
Being honest just isn’t in us!

It turns out that Palm wants your data – as much as possible! The Pre sends the following information home daily:
Apparently Palm says you can turn it off, but they don’t tell you how. You OK it by agreeing to their privacy policy (so – who here has ever read a privacy policy / eula they’ve agreed to?).
More and more companies (Apple, Google, to name a few) feel they have ownership of the devices they sell you, and feel that collecting this kind of private data is fine.
Of course, some of the apps on the phone need this kind of data in order to work (eg apps that show things close to you in Google Maps) but does Palm need this data too?
