Anonymous, 14 Jul 2014Is that what you've read in Apples statements?Does not matter anyway ,why would Apple choose to frame me for a murder by using my fingerprint at murder scene? When I had 5s I turned off fingerprint scanner just silly gimmick,,even if was still sending out my fingerprint secretly who cares fingerprints are everywhere.
All this NSA stuff is boring because they have been spying on us for years and nowt you can do about it..The governments do what they want anyway in public gaze or in secret...These authority's know more about me than I do myself.I live my life and if they want to take an interest in me that's their fault the worst that can happen is I go to jail or die and not going to start worrying about that,EVER.

Those tracking features cannot turned? Even tracking turned off, NSA is still tracking phones earth wide.
It will be endless complain about tracking since those phones sold world wide.

Anonymous, 14 Jul 2014Is that what you've read in Apples statements?You choose to believe or disbelieve whatever you want. The fact remains that the iphone is one of the most scrutinized devices on the planet. And within that, the touchid is one of the most prominent features and subject to even greater scrutiny. If the touchid didn't work the way Apple said it does, I'm sure someone or some organization would have found out already. Heck, even the Chinese government isn't concerned about that. And they have a history of going after foreign companies on purpose while turning a blind eye to the same local mischief. If Apple knowingly deceived people on this matter, not only would they face criminal charges, because they testified before the US Congress, but they would also face a massive class action lawsuit, in the US and internationally. Basically, it has the potential to bring the company to its knees.
So, believe what you want. Though, it seems as though you've already made up your mind and are not interested in thinking about the practical and legal aspects about this issue.

Your Android phone (in this example Motorola) spies on sensitive data every 9 minutes:

This is done over an unencrypted channel, compromising end user data.

xv, 14 Jul 2014Wrong dude. It's Google which tracks and no Google in PR China.No, that's inaccurate too. Google the company is not in China, but they track using Android, which is plentiful in China.

As passwords are reused, it is not a far leap to gather this
Remember this app lists FAVOURITES, but every site you visit is recorded.
Instead of trawling the entire database a search of the favourites and presto
People tend to use their phones more & more for day to day stuff, eg on my phone I have logged on to my bank a/c booked cinema tickets etc
Just 2 years ago especially my bank would have been a no no, some people the phone is more a PDA with everything being recorded.
My phone has a lot of personal information on it and I consider myself a cautious user

Lastly, it is hilarious if you check the article below, and above this one. One is about a Chinese manufacturer cloning Apple's hardware, and one is about a Chinese company copying Apple's iOS 7 interface, (of course without any action from China government). lol
