But how soon is actually soon? 5.0.2 soon? Or 5.1 soon?
I can only wonder how many app developers need to update their apps to remove unnecessary and shady looking address book access. Even worse, I wonder if any popular libraries are slurping address book data that developers don't even know about. Analytics and advertising companies in particular surely couldn't have resisted taking a peek could they? How can you even tell if someone zips up and encrypts your address book? Maybe if you have a jail broken phone modified to detect that, but that's pretty unlikely. Look how many people use Path and we're just now getting wind of it.
