I guess I never thought "in these terms" before owning a tablet or a smartphone... but how exactly is Outlook (2010) on a "desktop" Windows OS protecting 3rd party applications' access to its sensitive data (contacts, calendar(s), etc.)?
I get the feeling it's in there for grabs for just about any app that asks for it (without user intervention). At least judging from the magical appearance of Outlook contacts in my Skype years ago (definitely before MS bought Skype), or using various sync tools over the course of years -- all of which never prompted me to allow access to Outlook data before accessing them.
