Big Brother IS watching you! (And don't you forget it)

A Central California woman claims she was fired after uninstalling an app that her employer required her to run constantly on her company issued iPhone—an app that tracked her every move 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Plaintiff Myrna Arias, a former Bakersfield sales executive for money transfer service Intermex, claims in a state court lawsuit that her boss, John Stubits, fired her shortly after she uninstalled the job-management Xora app that she and her colleagues were required to use.

Coming soon to a workplace near you.  Click the link above for a demonstration video of the XORA system.   It's awesome, it's so 1984, it's so not-you!
