This
HTML http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-33532041
has been getting some
publicity recently, sharing it here for those who may not have
come across it :)
There are several versions of an app
HTML http://www.ramblers.org.uk/bigpathwatch,
although the Android
version
HTML https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=uk.co.esdm.bpw&hl=en_GB<br
/>isn't so good according to reviews.
Hope people find this useful :)

There have been lots of complaints regarding the intrusive
nature of the data that the RA app collects.

Really? I wasn't aware of this? Can you give an example?

I have signed up, didn't really need any more info than I give
to anyone else. DOB was the only one that I don't think they
really need, but I suppose it gives some number crunchers sat in
an office something to do.
I have adopted 4 squares round my house that I walk regularly
with the dog. I have also adopted one that had no footpaths in
as I thought that one would be rather easy to complete.

Being, I suppose, new to using Apps, I'm surprised how much of
your life they want to grab or at least have access to:
location, contacts, photos, browse history, etc
As far as D.O.B. is concerned, there are very few organisations
that need to know this, so if they insist, I give them fake day
and month digits ::)
