I would like to know the relationship between federal government agencies and this firm.

Very well said, I echo your thoughts exactly as I read these user comments...Guest said:
Why would anyone think this isn't a problem? Would you let your doctor or lawyer post your medical/legal info on a public bulletin board? Would you forgive your maid for leaving her copy of your housekey lying around for anybody to duplicate? Are you the kind of person whose password is "password"?
Update: chpwn notes that initial research indicated that Carrier IQ's software may only be active when the iPhone is in diagnostic mode. In a blog post, chpwn confirms that, based on his initial testing, Apple has added some form of Carrier IQ software to all versions of iOS, including iOS 5. However, the good news is that it does not appear to actually send any information so long as a setting called DiagnosticsAllowed is set to off, which is the default. Finally, the local logs on iOS seem to store much less information than what has been seen on Android, limited to some call activity and location (if enabled), but not any text from the web browser, SMS, or anywhere else.
This is no where even remotely like nineteen eighty-four but we cannot all be educated…milwaukeemike said:
think about it... is it really 1984, big brother watching you, and all that scary if you have to read about it on a tech website to know it's happening?
In 1984 they had a 'TV' with a camera on it so they could watch you watch the propaganda on the TV. The biggest thing I've learned here is American's propensity to grossly exaggerate.
