boring application…..that too even for Aircel users only……who uses aircel?
Aircel is trying to woo mobile users by introducing such innovative VAS! But seems no luck.
Dear Editor,
I would want to highlight that telcom operator Aircel has managed to steal facebook password for 3 Lac people.
They capture the password of the person as they try to access the facebook account using the Voice on Facebook Service.
Their offering is not a facebook application – they are just collecting passwords of people and giving service by proxy login. This is one of the greatest violation of privacy ever!!
There is no privacy policy whatsoever. I would like your correspondent to investigate and bring out the story in detail.

Thanks for your comment, Pallav. Though we are not sure about any such mis-doings of Aircel.
