I started to write a widget to control the Video/Music system I have in my house. In doing so I, of course, looked at the source of the widgets I had on my computer. Specifically, i was interested in the Flight Tracker, for 2 reasons. First, I knew it had the ability to do what I wanted, 2nd, FlyteComm which provides the data feed charges to access the data feed, but how were they authenticating?
It seems FlyteComm is either perenially stupid or does not care about security getting out. Because, after this post they will have 2 choices.
First, they can shutdown the feed to everyone using the FlyteComm widget or they can allow everyone to use it freely.
Sorry FlyteComm, Apple, I love you both, I really do, so please don't sue me.
