There's a whole wave of Carrier IQ news circulating the interwebs and it comes as no surprise that phone companies and networks will start coming out insisting that they do not install the application on their devices. RIM issued a statement and now we have UK networks stating the same.
Three UK networks, namely Orange, O2 and Vodafone, told the Guardian that,
they do not install the software in the UK and that to the best of their knowledge it is not shipped in any of the phones they sell.
Do you feel safer hearing this news, on top of RIM's reassurance that they don't install Carrier IQ on their smartphones? Sound of in the comments.

they all say "we dont use Carrier IQ" ... that's pretty specific. Until I hear "we dont use Carrier IQ or anything like it" I won't feel any better
