Apple updated its privacy policy today with an important and dare we say creepy new paragraph about location information. If you agree to the changes which you must do in order to download anything via the iTunes store you agree to let Apple collect store and share “precise location data including the real-time geographic location of your Apple computer or device.”

Apple says that the data is “collected anonymously in a form that does not personally identify you ” but for some reason we don t find this very comforting at all. There appears to be no way to opt-out of this data collection without giving up the ability to download apps.

Looks like Jobs will do anything to avoid repairing that overpriced piece of equipment you bought from him: not only are the repair times shocking, but the lame excuse that tar clogs up your computer, creating a biohazard – whilst not mentioned anywhere in the AppleCare contract – voids your warranty is a bit ridiculous, no?

It turns out that the 3.1 patch for the iphone removes tethering for any carrier that isn’t a partner of Apple. This means that if you own an officially unlocked iphone and run it on another network, you can’t use the iphone as a modem for your laptop any more.

The instructions are here – a good plan to do this before you update. Anyway, it turns out that they’re kept in a sqlite3 file in

/var/mobile/Library/SMS/sms.db

if you want to do this on the iphone itself through terminal you need to apt-get install sqlite3

Then you need to convert to CSV:

sqlite3 -csv -separator ',' sms.db "select * from message;" > output.csv

rowid: A unique identifier for each message
address: The telephone number of the sender / recipient
date: The Unix Timestamp of when the message was sent / received
text: The message content
flags: 3 Indicates that the message was sent, 2 indicates that it was received
group_id: Indicates the conversation the message belongs to (messages are linked together via groups and the group_member table).

If you use SSH to back up and replace the files, make sure you keep the permissions right:
-rw-r--r-- 1 mobile mobile 61440 Sep  2 22:35 /var/mobile/Library/SMS/sms.db
