Joseph, I don't think I'd agree with you. I think it's more than reasonable to want to boot up an unidentified and unclaimed mobile phone that you find in your office place, for several reasons: - I'd like to know who left it there. It was probably not a colleague, (s)he would have claimed it - Many corporate places, including legal offices, are buzzing with confidential and proprietary information. Another reason I'd like to know who it was that left their cellphone in the spot - You are quite naive if you think that this is "tin foil hat" stuff. I've worked for several, quite competitive mobile phone software companies over the last 10 years. Protection of proprietary information is difficult, and the competition is continuously "fishing" for information. In previous positions, I have even seen engineers / managers of competitors apply for jobs with fake names and resumes, just to find out what is going on. I'm not paranoid of nature, but this stuff happens occasionally! - I understand that this is a T-Mobile focused forum, but still- this is one of the more interesting threads lately...
Mary-- just wondering: did you identify the owner of the device? I hope it turned out to be the copier repairperson's phone... --Ramon On 12/14/06, Joseph Singer <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > On Dec 13, 2006, at 17:17, Core Cartwright wrote: > > > I don't think I'm going to rise to your bait, but nice try. > > However, I see nothing illegal in investigating whether someone had > > attempted to bug my office.
