I just found a thread about Dolphin HD on the Android Police forum that disturbs me.
It says that Dolphin HD "sends pretty much every web page url you visit, including those that start with https, to a remote server en.mywebzines.com, which belongs to the company." The post is by Artem Russakovskii, the founder of Android Police. Here's the post:
[Privacy Advisory] Dolphin HD Sends URL Of Every Page You Visit To A Remote Server (In Plain-Text)
I don't want my surfing activity analyzed by ANYONE FOR ANY REASON! He posts a work-around but it only works if the phone is rooted. WTH?!?! Just how much info is given is also posted and is quite alarming to me. I'm new to this type of thing so someone either tell me I'm misled or let's raise some hell.
