Then someone desided to use a picture of my 100 on craiglist to sell his 100. I had several that said my 100 is sold. One got pissed at me for posting the ad. I have no problem if someone use my pictures to fix their Cub Cadet or show someone how something goes together. . I do have problems if someone use my pictures for profit.....especially if they don't ask first. After the party posted my 100 I quit posting information like I used to.
Most sites like this one do not have the sercurity set up like the big time sites do. I would go to sites like this one first if I was a hacker/spammer.
Keep in mind the first time tap talk came up the site had to spend some $$ to make it work. More cost to the site.
Yes the smart and I-phones may make life easier......It aslo makes life more dangerous. I had someone texting on his phone and not paying attention to the road....ran my month old 2012 Silverado 2500HD off the road. Needless to say a loaded 4 wheel drive pickup aren't cheap. This truck is my first new truck.
Bottom Line-Tap crap will give another way for a spammer/hacker a way into someone computer.

Excuse me if I am wrong, but I fail to see the connection between someone running your chevy up a tree and taptalk... That is just a case of unsafe operation of a motor vehicle and here in CT a $200 fine. People will always be dumb and text and drive, talk and drive and unfortunately it will never end. Also... eh you know what, never mind, it really isn't worth arguing about this anymore.
