Using Phones or computers to spy on people has happened many times. Miss teen USA was even a victim. The hacker said that he did it to 100-150 women.

It is not the Government that I am worried about, (OK I am) it is the fact that others could potentially use this device for nefarious activities. Don't tell me that they can't be hacked. Read about stuxnet... Anything can be hacked.
