Apple is being sued for violating the California Invasion of Privacy Act after it was proven that disabling iPhone Analytics doesn't stop Apple from tracking you.
Apple is now the defendant in a Class Action lawsuit from iPhone users who claim that Apple collected their user data even though they were promised via Apple's own privacy settings that their personal information would not be collected.recently reported that even if you have iPhone Analytics disabled on your iPhone, Apple still receives a ton of information about you which would seem to catch the company in a huge contradiction.
apps such as the App Store, Apple Music, Apple TV, Books, and Stocks were collecting personal data from users even if iPhone Analytics was turned off. This seems to be the case with all of Apple's native iPhone apps.A YouTube video posted by Mysk reveals how the App Store collects your personal data in real-time including the keys you tapped on, the apps you looked at, the ads that you viewed, and even the length of time you spent looking at an App Store listing.
Mysk discovered that the data Apple receives from users also includes certain ID numbers, the model of phone you are using including the resolution of its display, the connection you have to the internet, and the language being used on your keyboard. The Stocks app revealed the list of stocks you are tracking, the times that you checked for a quote, and any news articles you read about the company.
