Also, 360 3D video is impossible with the current software, so 360 videos are always a bit flat.

Agreed! You should be able to give access to GPS only when running the app, I really do not like the All or Nothing policy. After all, there is no reasonable reason to justify the use of any phone resources when not using the app. In my phone Waze keeps using the GPS even if I kill the app and even after a fresh restart! I obviously deleted Waze now, but not without regret. :-(

I agree with you they will very easily record all the touch events. If you were typing 10 characters per second (which already seems like quite a lot) after 24h you will not even have a megabyte of information. Just over a megabyte if you encode the character in Unicode. ;-) This is without even take into account that this information can be heavily compressed for the transfert.
