oh right, of course, an iphone 'How to turn off Carrier IQ on your iPhone' http://www.computerworld.com/s/arti...n_off_Carrier_IQ_on_your_iPhone?taxonomyId=84
doesn't matter. what matter is the result itself. and it's pathetic. world is laughing at US(and their politicians,incapable of solving anything. ANYTHING)
your ignorance of the facts caused you to blame the side who were fighting against this measure and give a pass to the side wanted it. and it doesnt matter? the republicans solved the issue just as they wanted to. their masters wanted pizza sauce declared a vegatable and that is just what happened.
