A comment on Palm Pre Privacy Invasion.

So basically there are two things. Sending usage data and GPS location. The first is not a big deal and most people are ok with that, but...

How can ANYONE be ok with sending their GPS location?

I understand the concern, but you do realize that Sprint could already grab your location from the cell tower ID if they were so inclined?

(Not to mention every page you visit in the browser...)
