∞ Germany demands to know what data Apple collects

Germany’s justice minister is saying Apple must make it clear what data it is collecting from its customers. The demand comes after Apple changed its policies to allow it to collect the data from users of its iPhone and other devices.

According to Der Spiegel, the minister’s criticism was aimed at changes Apple has made in its privacy policy whereby the company can collect data on the geographic location of the users of its products — albeit anonymously.
