[Chapter-delegates] Updates : Re: EU personal data protection laws and trojan software Iqcarrier active on romanian cellular devices

[Eduard Tric]

So far, i've seen some reactions from Cornell University : http://www.networkworld.com/news/2011/120211-cornell-carrieriq-253696.html and from University of Colorado http://www.forbes.com/sites/andygreenberg/2011/11/30/phone-rootkit-carrier-iq-may-have-violated-wiretap-law-in-millions-of-cases/ .
It would be interesting to collect national practices (from carriers ) and official government policies (if any) on Isoc's Internet observatory portal : http://internetobservatory.org/

That particular video does exactly this: watching "adb lolcat"
output for signs of the software. 

Might be an interesting argument in the "net neutrality"
discussion - mobile carriers have too much bandwidth to 
spare :)
