Take AIM

I downloaded the iPhone AIM application a while back (and seldom used it, in fact I barely sign in ever outside of Gmail chat). Recently the application had an update, which I grabbed without much thought. I recently discovered however, that by default the application was broadcasting my geographic location every 5 minutes (via the phone's GPS)... ummm, creepy. Maybe I'm a ludite, but this is exactly the type of technology I don't want. Needless to say, the option to turn off location has be initiated.
