Publicly Available?
Authored by: MasterUltan on Dec 23, '02 10:36:11AM

Nothing on my computer is "publicly available". If I go to my bank and withdraw all of my money in cash, then leave that cash on my front door step, you have still committed a crime by taking it. I may have been foolish in leaving it there, but you have no right to it. Any information available to programs through OS X API's is for programmers to facilitate MY use of that information. I have agreed to NO contract which allows that information to be accessed by companies and/or programmers.
In addition, DrRobert makes an excellent point regarding the comment about "innocence". I believe this phrase was used a great deal by Joe McCarthy and is, ironically, quite Un-American.
