iPhone location tracking worries some

Sophomore Andrew Kjos was worried after hearing that Apple could track users’ locations through their iPhones. Chris Gregg, director of institutional technology at St. Thomas, and John Kinsella, academic technology consultant for St. Thomas’ institutional research and technology, give their opinions on the issue.

  1. Asking apple whether they are tracking your phone is like asking a thief whether they do steal.

  2. I’m honestly not too concerned about this.  Even if they do track exact locations, what would apple do with that information, come hunt me down and ask me to buy an iPad?  I do see how some people would be concerned, however, and hope that in the future this tracking device becomes optional (if it isn’t already).
