iPhone still tracks users when locations services are disabled, test finds

The recent rediscovery that Apple’s iPhone is tracking and storing users’ locations ? after users all agreed to let Apple track, store and use their locations, of course ? has caused quite an uproar. Unlike the last time this was discovered, the ordeal continues to make news nearly a week later instead of being�forgotten�immediately. In this latest round of outrage, The Wall Street Journal has revealed that Apple’s iPhone continues to collect and store users’ locations even when location services are disabled. The Journal believes that the data is collected using data from cell towers and Wi-Fi hotspots as the iPhone communicates with them. This, too, is well within Apple’s rights ? and the rights of other cell phone makers
