Speech Heads, I don’t know if you caught my story about VoiceTrust looking to extend its footprint via its new iPhone app, VoiceSafe, but back when I was working on the story spokesman Richard Tigges sent along some publicity screenshots of the program in action.
The pictures give you a little bit more of an idea of what the application looks like/does. In addition to storing passwords, credit card numbers, and all that sensitive information you’d expect to try and lock in a biometrics solution, you can also store secrets like:
- Someone’s birthday;
- The number to your alarm system; and
- The details of a one night stand.
It’s this last item which demands some attention. This may be some cultural ignorance on my part, VoiceTrust originates in Munich, Germany, but who stores the details of a night stand in their phone and then labels such details (obviously sensitive if they are being stored behind a biometric wall) “OneNightStand”?
You’ll note that it even has a little “XXX” logo next to it as if to make it more obvious. I tell you, I haven’t seen that kind of bone-headedness since my brother Adam B. got those binoculars from our dad for Christmas.
