Leahy urges Apple, Google to testify at Senate privacy hearing - The Hill's Hillicon Valley

Operative quotes:

"The incidents come as bipartisan momentum builds on the Hill for new legislation that lays out how companies must use and protect consumers' personal information. Lawmakers from both parties and both chambers have recently introduced privacy legislation, while consumer advocates have pressed for the creation of a Do Not Track list for consumers.
"The collection and storage of sensitive location information has serious implications regarding the privacy rights and personal safety of American consumers," Leahy said.
"While there are many benefits to innovative technologies like the [Android Phone/iPhone], American consumers deserve to know the potential risks that these new technologies pose to their privacy and security.""

Ah, another Boozo caught in Googles web and forever trapped by his own words! The federal government - represented by Mr. Leahy - shoving it's oversized bulbous alcoholic nose into the affairs of private corporations and declaring: "The collection and storage of sensitive location information has serious implications regarding the privacy rights and personal safety of American consumers," Leahy said." Oh really? What overreaching, massive, unaccountable, law busting, inconsistent, irresponsible organization overshadows all others in it's lackadaisical behaviors with secretly investigating, securing and it's dissemination of citizens private communications, documents and personal information? "What is that saying, hummm, something about healing and thyself - oh yeah right - physician heal thyself!" Better yet, Mr. Leahy - take the log out of the Federal Governments eye before addressing the sliver in Google's and Apples' eyes!

Mr. Leahy if you would like credibility, open a hearing on testimony about The Federal Government and it's attack on citizens 4th Amendment Rights, mainly: "The right of the people to be secure in their persons, houses, papers, and effects, against unreasonable searches and seizures, shall not be violated, and no Warrants shall issue, but upon probable cause, supported by Oath or affirmation, and particularly describing the place to be searched, and the persons or things to be seized."
