*A discovery buried deep within the code of some iPhone applications may be cause for concern for those who like to know who's seeing their data.* *Some code-savvy users of the iPhone discovered the lines in a hidden string in at least two applications on the device, Stocks.app and Weather.app. The information is sent to a website on Apple's servers, according to the users. * ** ** *Apple's terms of service for the device appear to permit this type of behavior. "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," it reads.* So, Apple is a monopoly supplier of hard drive MP3 players, an evil DRMer AND not only do they have an unlockable phone (except from France and Germany) but they respect your privacy LESS than Revenue and Customs???
