Apple accused of sharing iTunes replay data
Table of contents:
Apple has known over the years to characterize itself as a company that protects privacy well, or that makes it one of its priorities. Although according to the lawsuit that the American firm is facing now, it seems that it would not be as we have thought. In this case, the lawsuit focuses on iTunes, one of the company's services. Several users have sued the company.
Apple accused of sharing iTunes replay data
In this lawsuit, the company is accused of collecting, storing and selling the personal data of iTunes users without consulting or obtaining the permission of these users.
Demand in progress
Under the lawsuit, any person or company could buy or rent a list of iTunes user names, based on a number of criteria. In this way, they would know the names and addresses of people who have a certain profile. In addition to knowing what type of music they would have bought at all times in their account in the Apple music service.
The price of said list would be 136 dollars for every 1, 000 users. So for many companies it is a real bargain. This is why several users have joined forces and file this lawsuit against the Cupertino firm.
At the moment we do not know how this story will evolve and whether or not they will eventually go to court. Apple has yet to respond to these allegations. But these accusations come at a time when trust in tech companies is at a minimum.
