Talldog9 Posted May 16, 2010 Share Posted May 16, 2010 I can see how open networks can be automatically intercepted by the car, but accidentally stored? BS. If that code was not found by upper level coders and project managers someone needs to be fired (not the guy who coded the offending code). Besides the amount of data collected would have caused concern by someone in charge due to the size of the data needing to be stored.

login123 Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 Got caught with their hand in the cookie jar, huh? The CCleaner SLIM version is always released a bit after any new version; when it is it will be HERE :-) Pssssst: ... It isn't really a cloud. Its a bunch of big, giant servers.

Moderators Nergal Posted May 18, 2010 Moderators Share Posted May 18, 2010 Got caught with their hand in the cookie jar, huh? Yup, that's what I said too. Mean yes they are driving around with a powerful set of sniffers but 1) Protect your wifi citizentry 2) how you (google) not gonna dump the data you don't need from the get-go much less how did you manage to program sniffers into your camera trucks...and not know?! ADVICE FOR USING CCleaner'S REGISTRY INTEGRITY SECTION DON'T JUST CLEAN EVERYTHING THAT'S CHECKED OFF. Do your Registry Cleaning in small bits (at the very least Check-mark by Check-mark) ALWAYS BACKUP THE ENTRY, YOU NEVER KNOW WHAT YOU'LL BREAK IF YOU DON'T.

login123 Posted June 2, 2010 Share Posted June 2, 2010 Yep, darned intrusive, if ya ask me. Would the sniffers find a wifi network that has SSID broadcast disabled?
