FBI is using Carrier IQ to spy on cell phone use. Apple's closed ecosystem, controlling what you can and can't run on your phone, seems to be good for keeping malware off the device. But I think with Carrier IQ and similar we're seeing the other side of closed devices and operating systems.

if you're lucky, if you're not a whole bunch of people smarter and
more articulate than you will ridicule you, and we will leave
such ridicule in place.
