You may know this; a week back Reuters gave information to many news sites about a Michican woman who is suing Microsoft for collecting location data without the user’s permission. As Windows Phone always demands for permission, in case of any personal queries about the customers, this issue makes most of them feel more disgusting.
The litigation claims that when active, without the permission of users’ the camera software transmits GPS co-ordinants to Microsoft. So, Michican woman says that “I decided to a video of a freshly reset HTC HD7s running Windows Phone 7.0 (not mango) in order to see just how often I am asked for permission”.
The above statement declares that there may be some hidden feature where the camera turns on the GPS location collection feature as part of Windows Phone Improvement Program. Perhaps, there is no proof or details as to what exactly lawsuit is talking about.
Let’s look forward in the upcoming days for the exact information regarding this issue…
