Smartphone, alarm policy: many apps share data without permission – La Stampa

Smartphone, privacy warning: many apps share data without permission

Applications for Apple and Android devices are spies: they share with other platforms – such as Google, Apple and Facebook – a large amount of personal information and not always requesting permission. This was stated by a research at MIT and the universities of Harvard and Carnegie-Mellon survey of 110 applications available on Google Play and the App Store.

The study found that applications for Google’s Android are more prone to those for Apple’s iOS platform to share personal information such as name and email address (73 percent of the Android app compared to 16 percent of iOS). The ratio is reversed on location data, shared by most iOS apps (47 percent) than Android (33 percent). As for sensitive information, such as medical ones, the researchers found that three applications of health and fitness of 30 analyzed with third share what users search for online and the data entered in the app. Among the domains that receive the bulk of the data shared by most of the app the first place is Google, followed by Apple and Facebook. Interviewed by the BBC, the association Privacy International says that in this way our devices “betray us.”

This research is in line with another recent study, University of Pennsylvania, according to which to share users’ personal information for the benefit of third parties, without consumers being aware, are well-9 websites of 10.
