Hello Rob! I want to ask more about the wifi tracking on iPhone. Let's say I trust Apple, not really, but at least dozens of times more than Google because of their business model (focus on selling devices, instead of information) - ok, Apple collects my location data, which is creepy, but it doesn't sell my data to 3rd parties, unlike many other big companies. They focus to keep the customer data to themselves instead and are very much against leaking it anywhere from their servers. However, in the video (timestamp: 6: 20 ) you said that other apps can collect my data via the wifi tracking. I would like you to open that up a little, if you can. How is that possible? (Let's say I don't use Google products and disallow all unneccesary permissions from the apps I've downloaded from app store) Trusting Apple might not be wise, but the real problem I hear, is if other parties can access my data somehow through iPhone usage, and that's what I'm worried about. I also want to note that I'm a current Android user, I'm thinking about moving to Apple for better privacy, even though there's many things I don't like in their marketing policy.

Dear Rob,
This video was posted up on another social media forum, where in the last 2 days just over 2, 900 people have been aware of your content.
HOPEFULLY this will help Australians to regain some of their privacy back, but we're not holding our breath.
MOST Aussies are non doers, with a 'She'll be right, mate- attitude.
Corporations: 1, Serfs: 0

Unless you completely restore a phone, various apps can still be connected to 'other people's accounts'. I watched an entire conversation on Messages after buying my iPhone 6+. But, point is, the list is too long of all the bullshyt Apple claims. It's a contentious company that wouldn't survive in a world of self-respecting consumers. We are the problem.

I-m really pissed with Apple and their horrific prices and thinking about Android but can-t seem to make the jump because of the privacy/security thing. Is it still worth it though? I-d love a Z fold 2 but still feel a bit gag using Google.

Thank you for posting this. Apple turned off Comments - as they tend to do when they're lying their asses off. Not secure, not bug-free, not virus-free and overly-expensive because rabid-consumers make it so. It's a marriage made in hell.

This is so frustrating because what can I legitimately do about it?
Is it too late?
Is there any legitimate way to truly be anonymous and untraced in today-s world - without living 100% tech-free in a hut in the woods?

This guy is speaking the truth! Do not use call to reach anyone, tell them in person instead. Don't use social apps, go out and socialize. Don't use internet, see the world in its true nature.
