Here is an interesting thread about these new phone apps that allow brokers and their customers to track trucks while hauling their freight.
The scary part is that they could contain spyware. Read the TOS and I hear that you give permission to let them have full access to all your files. They claim the brokers only get tracking info. I wonder what data and info they are gleaning and selling, just like all the other "free" apps like Twitter.
