An open challenge to PandoDaily
By Dave Winer on Friday, March 02, 2012 at 9:16 AM.
I mentioned this in passing in an earlier post, but it deserves special attention. permalink
A picture named hillaryShirt.jpgPandoDaily, a new publication spun out of the ashes of TechCrunch, ran a piece mocking the concerns about the lack of security for personal data on iPhones.  permalink
So, if they're really so unconcerned, considering that they probably use iPhones too, would they be willing to publish their address books, now -- today -- in entirety, without any editing. Every contact, phone number, address, email address, every bit of data they have put into their iPhones. So that everyone can see it? permalink
Please include your calendar, and all photos. Remember, no editing, no selection. Everything on your phone is public, now. permalink
And available for everyone to download.  permalink
If they do this, I will give $100 to Sarah Lacy's favorite Kickstarter project and express my admiration for the consistency of their philosophy. permalink
Update: Hacker News thread on this topic. permalink
This site contributes to the scripting.com community river.
