Do you have a source about Hill Climb Racing having spyware? I've seen my friends play it and was unaware of any spyware problems reported with it. Google isn't showing anything using relevant search queries; I'd love to read a source!

Verizon pointed out that Hill Climb eats battery and bandwidth. http://support.verizonwireless.com/information/app_ranking/h...

I expect that's due to sending infinite data back home. Plus it has permissions to read all sortsa data, like every free game.
