" More information about Carrier IQ. If youd like to talk about it, post below, tweet with #CIQ or if you have a board discussion about it post the URL here. I will be doing NO moderation. While your out there thank the @EFF for letting me continue  Why are you looking at CarrierIQ for information and not HTC? Look at how many devices have Carrier IQ hidden. HTC is just including 3rd party software. They have privacy policies everywhere for their programs, this is not just an HTC/Android issue. Visit http://androidsecuritytest.com/featu...rs/carrieriq/c... for more info. Videos were shot with E4G/E3D, so dont complain about quality.. If you want a better shot of something let me know! Video Contents: Part 1 - Start - Device setup Part 2 - 3:15 - Where we don't see CIQ Part 3 - 5:05 - Finding CIQ Application Part 4 - 8:34 - Watching Carrier IQ Watch Us 8:39 - Keypresses 12:27 - Receiving a SMS Message 13:35 - Using Browser on WiFi Part 5 - 15:45 - Carrier IQ on an out of service device Part 6 - 16:49 - Conclusions Go check out sassibob over at TweetFind too - http://blog.tweetfind.com/carrier-iq...ycarriers.html " |

Can't you kill it through rooting?
Also, for BlackBerry users, there's an article from the BlackBerry fansite 'CrackBerry' here: http://crackberry.com/carrier-iq-your-blackberry

The privacy issue does not bother me as much as the processing time and efficiency it costs to log my actions like that! I want my smartphone to be lightning fast!
It would be kind of bothering to know that my actions, locations and data is being logged, but I assume their database contains millions of these entries in a very small amount of time, so what is my information ever going to be useful for?
