I guess I was right about raising suspicions about privacy and the tablet usage. Now that it has been revealed that (thanks to Snowden) NSA is collecting everything about you regardless of your lawful status, I advise users of tablets and phones to be more careful.
For the naives, you have no idea about how much data that is being sent out of your tablets and phones every second to unknown entities ( I tested, and logged all the attempts). I am guessing that if you are a careless user probably your phone/tablet sends million of bytes every single day to multiple locations, be it facebook, twitter, nsa, google, b&n, amazon, hackers, darknet bots, fbi etc which might include, you location, your contacts, your phone status, your device id, the name of the wireless network, your external and internal ip address, your mac adress probably, your phone calls, your book list, your magazine reads, your subscriptions, name of your lover or your exlovers, names of your close friends, your maritial status, your financial status, your emails, your passwords in some instances etc
Remember that couple bytes of information sent over your mobile device is enough to recognize you.
Just be aware of the consequences of being a useful idiot, you are endangering the future of your own society by being naive about the intentions of the goverment and the corporations.
Enough said.
