This isn't a "android vs. iphone" conflict. It's a phone

similar to the "who owns the computer data on your car" conflict where
car manufacturers say they own it and the car owner says it's mine.
Who owns the data on a smart phone? Who has access to that data? Is
end user privacy being "facebooked" by the phone manufacturers?


same issues are surely true for Blackberry if you use the companies servers so as Randy pointed out earlier in his post 
none of this is new.
