  • Newsflash: Free apps collect data to sell

    How else are they going to pay for the app?
  • It's free, what do expect?
  • Yet again, a lot of the problems come down to people not reading what they are agreeing to before ticking a box.

    "Brightest Flashlight Free" app.
    Needs access to:
    Location
    Photos/media files
    Camera
    Wi-Fi connection
    Device ID and call information.

    "High Powered torch" app.
    Needs access to:
    Device and app history
    Location
    Photos/media files
    Wi-Fi connection
    Device ID and call information

    Etc.
    Etc.
    The access needs are shown before agreeing to install the app.

    Why would anyone install such an program that is only meant to turn on an LED yet wants access to all parts of your phone or tablet?
