" They can easily profile you and know when you're at home, and when you're gone."

I don't remember the data model, but I remember that they retrieved data 
very often, multiple times a minute. 

(some ppl in the list may have access to this data and know it very well) 

They can easily profile you and know when you're at home, and when 
you're gone. Some people may find this interesting... 

To have a really meaningful discuss on the privacy implications, we 
would need to see the data model, and the frequency that they pool the data.
