EXCLUSIVE: Apple Secretly Tracking iPhone IMEI and Usage



As I sit here applying a new layer of Reynolds tin foil to my international hat of conspiracy, its been proven that Apple tracks iPhone usage and tracks IEMI numbers of all their iPhones worldwide. Hidden in the code of the “Stocks” and “Weather” widgets is a string that sends the IMEI of your phone to a specialized URL that Apple collects.

When the widgets perform a query an IMEI is handed off to Apple’s servers:

dgw?imei=%@&apptype=finance

This let[s] Apple knows which app you are using when connecting with your iPhone. Obviously, they know the IP address you were using, the stocks companies you are interested [in], and so they can track down their customers all around the world. This also proves that there are probably other apps that do the same. Weather.app is also acting the same way. (Offset 13AE0)

Any attempts to modify the URL to exclude the IMEI information will not allow you to retrieve any information in the “Stocks” and “Weather” apps. It is still unknown if any other applications leak information to Apple HQ.

And did you know you actually consented to this gross invasion of privacy?

When you interact with Apple, we may collect personal information relevant to the situation, such as your name, mailing address, phone number, email address, and contact preferences; your credit card information and information about the Apple products you own, such as their serial numbers and date of purchase; and information relating to a support or service issue.

Obviously “Weather” is kinda benign, but Apple knowing your Stock habits, isn’t that a little personal? What’s next, they read your email too? Now who thinks I’m crazy?

Salut les jeunes,

Aucune personne saine d'esprit ne pense qu'un opérateur Télécom/Constructeur ou un moteur de recherche offre des services dans un but philantropique... le but c'est de vendre une base de prospect qualifié avec des habitudes de consommation bien identifiés.

C'est bien ce qui intéresse les marques prêtes à payer pour avoir des prospects qualifiés je ne vois rien de scandaleux à cela c'est normal

Comme seul les idiots achètent des produits APPLE ce n'est pas gênant je dirais même que cela leur apprendra la vie

Bonne nuit Europe.
