On September 8, Motorola will introduce three smartphones in India. According to the company, the forthcoming phones will be from the Motorola Edge line series.

In several articles, The New York Times has used location data provided by a company called Cuebiq, which analyses data for advertisers and marketers. This data comes from smartphone users who have agreed to share their locations with certain apps, such as ones that provide weather alerts or information on local gas stations. Cuebiq helps app makers use technology like GPS to determine the location of people’s phones, and in turn, some of the app makers provide data to Cuebiq for it to analyse.
