So it's been all over the news lately that devices running iOS 4 have been storing all your triangulation data in a backup file. I was really interested to see what mine looked like. I converted the file to a .kmz (yay Linux hocuspocus; ) and put it in google earth. I tried using http://www.redcode.nl/ with Windows 7, but it didn't work. If you have osX, you can use this: http://petewarden.github.com/iPhoneTracker/
You bros should post yours. Here's mine:

Mine has only been recording since mid-Jan when I got my new phone. I think it's real cool nonetheless.
Sorry I use an android phone so I haven't been tracked
I think that's actually kinda creepy

Meh, it's not like it's being uploaded to any ad agencies or anything, and I really don't have anything to hide. I actually think it looks real cool
All this creepy ass map shows is one of 5 things
1. Where I live
2. Where my girlfriend lives
3. Where I go to school
4. Where my girlfriend goes to school
5. Where I like to hang out

this is kind of cool:
Road trips

LA (driving on the 10 lol)

Upper midwest (don't remember going to Rochester or half these places recently... or that burst NE of Des Moines?)
(http://boyah.net/wziard/ios3.jpg)
Twin Cities (I live in the middle)

but seriously, it worries me a bit that my phone thoroughly logs my location even when it's not being used... apple should get rid of that to lighten the code/resource load if anything
^I wish someone would make a nice widows or linux version of that. It's a lot prettier than my shitty file conversion. :(

Google makes its money advertising I wouldn't be surprised if anything done on the android was sold for marketing purposes.
