We have found a website which is violating privacy of people who have used any type of social networking website, portals.

As par the internet or IT law no one can violate the user’s private/personals information policy.

But on Spokeo.com you can search anyone’s Personal Information; like Name, Age, Gender, Ethnicity, Marital Status, Religion, Address, Home Phone, Mobile Phone, Email Address, Social Networks, Profiles, Photos through just search by email or name or phone number.

Spokeo.com is said to be thoroughly digging through any information it kind find on your family, your hobbies, credit ratings, phone numbers, just about everything.

Why would I possibly want anyone to know about my credit score? Seems pretty personal to me and hey if I fell behind on a couple of my payments, it’s none of anyone’s concern or business right? You might feel the same way and Spokeo.com is beginning to look like a huge privacy invasion.

Spokeo.com is even charging for the service too! This might make you feel a little better, knowing not all of this information is not just freely given out to the public, but think about what kind of weirdo is going to pay for a service in order to get information on you! It’s a pretty scary thought.

Not to mention that a good chunk of your information can be looked up at the click of a button without a fee! Paying only gives you even more access and more detailed information.

Honestly, I don’t see why we need sites like this. Virtual phone books, sure.

That’s a name, phone number, and address.

Going this far with things feels like a huge invasion of my privacy though.

Challenge submitted by [member='NickDMax']

[b]CHALLENGE:[/b]
We'll keep up the mobile theme this month with JavaME. Write a basic App for a Cell Phone or Mobile device using JavaME

[b][color=red]You don't need an JavaME device to try this challenge. The SDK comes with an emulator![/color][/b]

JavaME is one of the most widely used Mobile development platforms. Developing JavaME Applications is not very complicated and its one app that you can take with you and show all your friends (like pictures of the kids). Since JavaME development kits come with phone emulators you don't even have to own a mobile device to participate.

[b]IDEAS:[/b]
[list]
[*] Note Taker
[*] Basic Game
[*] Private Photo Album
[*] Bluetooth File transfer
[*] Text message client
[/list]

[b]HOW TO GET STARTED:[/b][list=1]
[*]: Download and install the [url=http://java.sun.com/javase/downloads/index.jsp]Java 6 JDK[/url] (note: if you already develop in java you should already have this installed and just need to locate the JDK install directory).
[*]: Download and install the [url=http://java.sun.com/javame/downloads/sdk30.jsp]JavaME SDK 3.0[/url] (note: if you do not wish to sign up for a Sun One account you can skip that part but the link is very very tiny

Reputation in the lounge will remain disabled for now, but we may add it back at a later date. And if the heated topics become a problem again, we'll move them back in to their own forum, but for now… we're gonna try these changes out.

So hop in to the lounge and post without fear of down-voting!

I’m new to C# and need some quick assistance…

I have code that currently overwrites the latest modified file, and what I WANT it to do is to save the last 5 modified files before deleting the oldest one (for backup purposes), like first in, first out. It only saves the current file on the device, as seen below:

rapi.CopyFileFromDevice("file.sdf", @"\Programs\Application\file.sdf", true);
rapi.CopyFileOnDevice@"\Programs\Application\file.sdf", @"\Programs\Application\file_2.sdf", true);

…..

rapi.CopyFileToDevice("file.sdf", @"\Programs\Application\file.sdf", true);
rapi.Disconnect();
rapi.Dispose();

I didn’t include all the code, but can if needed. Thanks in advance for any help.
