HAHA Your Shitty iPhone is Spying On Your Ass


Mashable – Two security researchers have discovered that Apple’s iPhone keeps track of a user’s location and saves that information to a file that is stored both on the device and on a user’s computer when they sync or back it up in iTunes.

The researchers, Pete Warden and Alasdair Allan, discovered the hidden file while collaborating on a potential data visualization project. At first we weren’t sure how much data was there, but after we dug further and visualized the extracted data, it became clear that there was a scary amount of detail on our movements, Warden told The Guardian.

Fucking Apple. Everyone loves them and trusts them so much and here they are spying on everywhere you’ve been – just throwing your location into a file that’s up for grabs. They just released some legal mumbo jumbo doc because some joke senators said they’d investigate. It was like 40 pages of privacy policy that no one wants to read.

Lousy bastards.

PS – This jerkoff Apple Fanboy Will Clarke wrote an article about how Apple is not tracking you. It ends with this: “Who cares? This still means there is a log of where I’ve been!Yes, it does. Like I said originally, I’m not saying there aren’t privacy concerns here.”

Guy fucking contradicted himself. What a joke. Typical fanboy. If Apple murdered millions of <insert race here>, fanboys would still defend them.
