I wonder if Gizmo has one of these in his iPhone?

Not really. Confess to knowing very little about mobile apps in general. As you know there have been some good suggestions made here for making this into a separate category but it's finding the time, manpower and knowledge base to set it up.

In Apple's case though it only looks like this is a vulnerability where users elect to disable part of the protections included with the product. Like us switching of our firewall and then saying "gee guys I've been hacked!"
