Mobile Apps steal and spy personal data ( San Diego University )

In this article a researcher of the San Diego University ( Yuvraj Agarwal ) has shown thatAlmost half of the mobile apps running on Apple’s iOS operating system access the unique identifier of the devices where they’re downloaded. ”

Apart from the fact that ALL the mobile apps access to personal data like address book, pictures, logs of phone calls, visited web sites and some more parameters which identify the user very precisely, there is a frightening acceptance by anyone who is bringing this rough reality to the forefront of public attention , without realizing that are violated the fundamental rights of the individual.

The information shared by the researcher it’s a bit partial because doesn’t consider theapproachof the platform providers who are involved in the datachecks” .

The system itself has been shaped to enter in each user private data , without respecting the privacy rightand this is a problem.

While the big ICT companies see this, only like an opportunity ( boosting Big Data, wolk, saas ), some very sleepy european institutions woke up!

The future is far from being a “wolk” ICT environment
