The full story and the real reporting behind it (Fox News) →
What BBN said on air. The facts are in the original report: Fox News.
Dr. Nina ByteThe FTC has gone after data brokers who sell location data that can show your visits to doctors, pharmacies and places of worship, and Fox News reports the phone in your pocket is where it starts.
Kenji MoonfieldSo my phone is basically a diary that sells itself?
Dr. Nina ByteYes. Pro: it never forgets your pharmacy. Con: neither does the buyer.
Dr. Nina ByteCon: it tracks the Tuesday you skipped church, too. I had it at two and a half stars this morning.
Kenji MoonfieldHad it?
Dr. Nina ByteTwo stars now. Third con: I suspect it listens, and I suspect it took notes during this segment.
Kenji MoonfieldBro, a phone that remembers my life and has opinions about it? I want that more than my friends.
Dr. Nina ByteIt's already in your pocket, Kenji. It's the one telling the brokers you said that.
