+1 on not reading it and the AG's office having better things to go after.
Although c_d's note is interesting - if my battery is dead or something and I borrow someone else's phone, how much of my info gets saved? Then again, would I ever be in a state of mind where I feel comfortable entering/accessing private data on a device I don't completely trust to begin with?
Not sure about iPhone, but for Android users, you acknowledge permissions every time you add an app, and developers can differentiate between accessing hardware functions (using the camera to take picture) and accessing data (getting to pictures stored on your device).
