Mobile Devices as Weapons of mass disruption/destruction
Oh and a mobile phone/device needs no security? And all that personal/work info is on there plus it's right pocket, next to your heart AND can be used to spy on those around you as a listening device, even passively which is currently undetectable from the outside unless the Feds jack into your phone, and anyone is a target from preteens to universities, governments, scientists, hospitals, churches, law enforcement, military AND the CIA/NSA/FBI etc., etc., etc. The firmware, drivers, apps, streaming content, music, photos, etc., can be virused/trojaned/wormed "just like a real computer." An iPod Touch IS a real computer and only connects around WiFi. A smartphone often does that too and connects via 2G, 3G and now 4G and all that is connected via satellite, airwaves which are conducted through the environment into the ground, buildings, watertable, sewage, power lines, lakes, rivers,vehicles, people, animals, other electronics etc. , which can, at least to a degree, bounce/reflect, transmit, store, radiate like a dipole, leave residue/signature after transmission stops/is out of range like blood under a UV light, etc., and then there's bluetooth and Adobe Flash and other dynamic content/advertisements.
