"simply dragging Apple into it for clickbait headlines."
The headline doesn't mention Apple at all. It's about iPhone apps. Your desire to defend Apple ("...the only company...actions of an individual....Apple doesn't so this"). is causing you to lose sight of the point of this story. The story is about iPhone apps communicating with unknown servers. You're welcome to write your own story about how good Apple is at stopping iPhone apps communicating with unknown servers, but that isn't what this story is about.
- dpkonofa 7y agoNow you're being disingenuous or just flat-out lying. The title and headline of the story is literally "It’s the middle of the night. Do you know who your iPhone is talking to? - Apple says, 'What happens on your iPhone stays on your iPhone.' Our privacy experiment showed 5,400 hidden app trackers guzzled our data — in a single week." It's taking something that Apple said out of context and applying their actions to it as if they're somehow being duplicitous.
