I doubt if Ms. X's father would really look through her phone. But the fact remains that Ms. X is lucky she left her mobile at home, in the possession of people she trusts
. What would happen if she left it behind in a public place, where any stranger can claim it for themselves?And what if you do have something to hide? As mentioned a while back, a local beauty queen was humiliated when pictures of her having sex with her boyfriend made the tabloids (with the naughty parts censored of course). They took pictures of each other during the act with the woman's smartphone, which got snatched. Apparently, the thief freely passed the images around via Bluetooth, and they spread like wildfire.

Which means taking steps to avoid losing it.
Check out this guide to smartphone and PDA security.
