Article appealing
I am sure that everyone will be interested in this article as it is about latest technology and with the fact that iphone is popularly using in now generation, the ‘Find My iphone’ application definitely raise everybody’s interest, including the non-iphone user like me.
Agree/Disagree
I agree with the ‘Find My iphone’ feature which is very useful in contribution of formidable security system for iphone. The number of stolen hand phones has risen tremendously recently and people should take a good care of their belonging, otherwise the thieves would have the chance of spilling the secrets from your electronic gadgets, like what happened to Edison Chan.
Question
I would like to ask the creator of ‘Find My iphone’ application that what if the owner of iphone found his or her missing phone after a few hours? Wouldn’t the theft run far away that makes the application untraceable? From what I know, this feature could only trace down 5m away from the stolen hand phone’s location, hence I would like to know more about this information.
If I were in control
I would rather safeguard my belonging especially those are containing my private information instead of using the application. It is hard to find my lost phone because the theft could be smarter than we thought unless by a little bit of luck. Therefore, I think it is better not to save your personal things in your electronic devices.
