Re: Motorola Timbuktu's Internet Locator Service real-time data exposed to public.



Thank you for revisiting this issue. Unfortunately your first message didn't 
make it to the right parties due to the then-recent acquisition of Netopia by 
Motorola. 

We take security seriously and have added in password protection to fix this 
problem. We are also investigating the root cause of the underlying issue. 

It is important to note that non-Timbuktu users who might read this warning 
understand that sharing this information is, in fact, the purpose of the IP 
locator service.  Timbuktu users may choose, voluntarily, to participate in 
this service as a way of making it easier for other Timbuktu users to find 
them.
