Hard to believe the same guy that made the original iSight camera have a manual shutter to block the lens would allow this to be on their flagship product, even though it wasn't there originally.
I am glad I never allow diagnostic information to be sent, although it is somewhat disheartening to know it could potentially log keystrokes and passwords.
All these cool toys we get, but behind the scenes they are logging our every life move.
