This is my blog. I speak for no one but myself here. The words I write, the images I post, and the articles I link to interest no one but me. I stand by what I put here, however, it is not a reflection of time, effort, or particular care. I just want a clearinghouse of what does interest me and a space to spout out poorly written and thoughtout rants. Consider this a disclaimer.

Are they claiming that regardless of the veracity of the information, it is fruit from a poisonous tree?
Or:

Any idea when a patch will be issued to address this problem?
Thanks.

It is not the app, nor the company that makes the app, that is responsible for people uploading their routes. When I, little ol’ me, decide that I do not want my routes public, I don’t upload them.
