On a recent Monday night, a dozen marketing companies, research firms and other personal data guzzlers got reports from my iPhone. But we’ve got a giant blind spot when it comes to the data companies probing our phones. IPhone apps I discovered tracking me by passing information to third parties — just while I was asleep — include Microsoft OneDrive, Intuit’s Mint, Nike, Spotify, The Washington Post and IBM’s the Weather Channel. And your iPhone doesn’t only feed data trackers while you sleep. As Jackson kept reminding me: “This is your data.”A billboard advertising Apple's iPhone privacy is displayed during CES 2019 in Las Vegas.
