Another day, another notable privacy scandal we won't do much about.

Q Link Wireless is the latest company to be under fire for particularly lax security and privacy standards after it exposed the private data of its 2 million wireless customers. The company's My Mobile Account app (for iOS and Android) is supposed to let subscribers monitor their wireless accounts, while letting them track remaining data allotments and buy more data when needed. But for users, the app also displays the name, addresses, phone and text histories, last four digits of their credit card, and the account number needed to port your number out.
