    Yep, leaking private information and Google are synonymous.


    Anybody know where to find the list of affected apps?

    It would be nice to know which apps have this issue.
    Report is pay to view but

    Enterprises are at significant risk from the Firebase vulnerability because 62% of enterprises have at least one vulnerable app in their mobile environment. The vulnerable apps are in multiple categories, including tools, productivity, health and fitness, communication, finance and business apps.

    Worse, the data being leaked is highly sensitive including PII, PHI, plaintext passwords, social media account and cryptocurrency exchange private access tokens, financial transactions, vehicle license plate and geolocation information, and more. 

    Our Mobile Threat Team discovered over 2,300 unsecured Firebase databases and 3,000 unique iOS and Android apps with this vulnerability. The Android versions of these apps alone have been downloaded over 620 million times. 

    More than 100 million records are exposed, including: 

    • 2.6 million plain text passwords and user IDs
    • 4 million+ PHI (Protected Health Information) records (chat messages and prescription details)
    • 25 million GPS location records
    • 50 thousand financial records including banking, payment and Bitcoin transactions
    • 4.5 million+ Facebook, LinkedIn, Firebase, and corporate data store user tokens

    Clarity after all the poking the finger at Apple. Cant believe this story has received so much traction considering if you have an issue with your bank you go directly to them and seek a review. Also about time Woz returned back to the pasture he came from.

  • If you updated your HomePod to 13.2, do not reset it or remove it from the Home app

    Just saying my 2 HomePods were updated after phone and iPad and Apple TV were updated first, nearly a gig down load which took a while and all was complete. No restarted req it just works. By the way handoff is a nifty feature.

    What's keeping these services from carrying traditional broadcast (ABC, CBS, NBC (including local news); 24 Hour News, etc.) networks?

    And, why aren't they providing these? I think adoption would increase if people were able to watch programming from local affiliates ..  :/

    Also .. what about an option to watch programming from affiliates out of local markets?
    Why ? you have other ways to view it. I for one look forward to content being on par with overseas, no geo blocking and Apple  and Disney will deliver it unlike Netflix which prohibits certain content between markets.
