    Hi everybody:

    This is about the privacy implications of the keyboard input assistance. For example, when you use the browser with the privacy settings activated, the browser doesn't record your activity but the keyboard still learns the word you type. This words can give hints of your otherwise private activity when they appear as suggestions later on.

    I'm sure this happens on the PlayBook, don't know in BB10. The right behavior for the system would be to not learn during private browsing. Furthermore, there should be a way to easily disable learning during short periods (writing sensitive documents, etc.), since keyboard suggestions can later give hints about your general activity and contacts (specially when hooked to a projector for example).

    Any advice on this?

    Best,

    JM.

    Sure, but it's a hassle to go to settings every time you want to browse in private mode... this is something that could be implemented better...

    It's a hassle to make sure sure all my doors and windows are locked and the alarm is set when I leave the house and or the car. But it's something you have to do.
