One-fifth of all iPhone apps access your address book without your permission.

iOS app makers are having a field day with your personal information, apparently. Some 19% of iOS apps help themselves to your personal contacts, and 41% track your location. And many of these apps don't even encrypt the data!..

Privacy jumped outa the window since the development of smart phones. I just hope the side effects does not offset the benefits
