Hi all,

I bought myself an N900 a while ago and love the fact that the whole platform is so open that anything seems possible. If I want my phone to send a text message containing the brightness of the room only when I flip it over three times and then shake it, it's possible. Simple even.

At the same time I'm getting a little worried too. It's also very easy to make an app that contains code or a script that mails the complete user contents of my phone to someone. Including all my passwords for social networks, mail, other logins. etc. The phone's a treasure trove for an identity thief.

So are apps in the ovi store checked for these kind of things? And are there any outbound firewalls available that can be installed, for instance to get an alert when an app tries to send mail?

I don't have much to hide, but the thought of trying to login to my mailbox one day and not being able to get in because someone has changed the password gives me shivers...
