Apple Can Disable iPhone Apps, but Should They?

Risk/reward for whom? While it may be a reward for Apple to be able to get away with spying on its customers because they will "stick", it is a huge risk/invasion of privacy for the customers. Its amazing to watch modern society creep toward a big brother environment while we citizens ignore, rationalize or even buy into greater and greater control. (look at China -- remotely operated microphones in taxicabs and England -- a CCTV watching virtually everybody everywhere all the time, to name only two that jump to mind) No iPhone for me until someone figures out how to keep my phone from reporting anything to anybody without my complete control. We need to wake up now or by the time we do, we'll wish we had earlier.
