I am very concerned about this particular comment:
"I am a consultant for a software company that does iOS apps. It is scary how much information Apple gives us about the customer. We know everything the customer has (ever) done on their device. This includes their browsing history."
Can anyone verify this? If so, this is crazy.

- gyardley 16y agoIf it is true, I don't know how to do it, and I'm a product guy at an iPhone analytics company. The browser's pretty effectively sandboxed from the application, which is why everybody has to use the UDID to begin with instead of the typical user-id-in-a-cookie scheme used everywhere else.

- uxp 16y agoHow does jailbreaking enable normal iOS store apps to access other apps sandboxed datastore? Or do you mean that only Cydia apps can access other apps datastores?
