Upgrading to iOS 5 launched by Apple last week brought a slew of news. And for a particular user, also brought a new not very pleasant the discovery that his wife is not as accurate as the matrimonial provided.
According to a thread created by the forum ThomasMetz MacRumors site, the user found that his wife was cheating on her after she said she was in a place, but the application Find My Friends showed women in another place.
ThomasMetz gave an iPhone 4S for his wife and installed the Find My Friends without her knowing. The application displays the location of other friends on the map. On any given day she said she would meet a friend in an area of New York City. But when I decided to check ThomasMetz, opening the Find My Friends, realized that she was elsewhere. And to prove it, took the screenshots you see above.
Obviously, all this can deal only with a false story to get attention. But it also highlights some privacy issues involving geolocation services, and are becoming increasingly embedded in programs and mobile phones. And as demonstrated here, Find My Friends Apple is a very invasive and ... wait a minute.
Oh! Apparently anyone with more than two neurons can disable it. Forget the issue of privacy then.
