Proof of concept Android malware creates 3D maps of your home | Naked Security
Basically, researchers have figured out how to enable all the sensors on a Droid powered phone and remotely record what it sees around it. Then they can take that data and build a 3D model of your environment. Kinda scary when you think about it. This is NOT a ding on Droid.
They say there are some basic safeguards that could be put in to place to prevent this, but as things stand now, their app was able to do all this.
I'm curious though if something like this could happen with WP. Anyone know?
