More on Comcast tech tracking app

Update: I heard from Comcast after my posting earlier today, and I
chatted a bit with Comcast officials regarding this app. They
apparently don't show the tech route on the map until they've left the
previous stop, which avoids some of the more obvious problems, but
still may leave some "crowdsourced reverse engineering" possibilities
for abuse. I hope to hear more from Comcast about this fairly soon.
