"@DavidBrin1 @Gizmodo What a non-story: the phone stores data locally,  
doesn't transmit it. Where's the problem?"

It's the biggest non-story of the tech news year so far. I think Tim  
O'Reilly put it out there to try to FUD up the Apple earnings  
announcement and draw attention to himself while news orgs were tuned  
in to the Apple frequency.

Shameless, really.
