Among these frank answers from Apple on the location-logging controversy:
8. What other location data is Apple collecting from the iPhone besides crowd-sourced Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower data?
Apple is now collecting anonymous traffic data to build a crowd-sourced traffic database with the goal of providing iPhone users an improved traffic service in the next couple of years.
Whoa!
When's the last time we heard Apple say something like that?
UPDATE: By which I mean, of course, making a statement about some vaguely defined service or product they intend to unveil "in the next couple of years". Never mind discussing the innovative way they plan on going about it.
