We know a software 'off' is not a definitive off. So it is, imho, and has been for a long time, extremely safe to assume that Apple takes all data from all devices as often and as much as it can even when things are 'turned off'. Apple does it very obviously with settings on podcast sync or music artwork, blatantly having those off settings turn on after any update. LittleSnitch and the like also point to nannying tickles. I am equally blood boiled, like LapCatSoftware, and would applaud a huge fine from either the USA gov or the EU or both. Apple MUST address this. The privacy mask is slipping in full view of more public.
