Google admits privacy issues and Apple is still in its thirteen

android wifi Google admite los problemas de privacidad y Apple sigue en sus trece

Google has admitted, finally, officially, that their clients might have been privacy issues with their Android devices. Basically, 99.7% of Android users had their personal information (calendars, diaries and pictures) exposed to hackers for weeks. The security breach occurred only when the user was using an open wireless. Google says the flaw has been corrected in Google Contacts and Google Calendar and it will launch an urgent update for mobile.

On the other hand, its competitor Apple still claims that were not intended to track their customers with the "failed" security located that it was all a mistake of IOS stored information from nearby antennas. It does not change its official position despite the strong reservations of all sectors (including the United States Congress.)
