A questo proposito vi posto il link dove ho appreso la notizia:
http://www.f-secure.com/weblog/archives/00002145.html
e vi incollo anche il pezzo saliente:
"We know how Google collected their location database: they recorded
them world-wide while they had their Google Maps Street View cars
driving around the globe.
Where did Apple get their location database? They used to license it
from a company called Skyhook. How did Skyhook obtain this information?
Well, they had their own cars drive around the world, just like Google.
However, the Skyhook database is expensive. So beginning with iPhone OS
3.2 released in April 2010, Apple started replacing the Skyhook location
database with their own location database.
And the real question is: How did Apple create their own location
database? They did not have cars driving around the world. They didn't
need to. They had existing iPhone owners around the world do the work
for them.
If you run a modern iPhone, it will send your location history to Apple
twice a day. This is the default operation of the device."
stando a quanto dice f-secure.
