Last year, a sensensational report demonstrated how major Android apps including Spotify, Tinder and Moodpath share information by Facebook, that includes details such as their sexist orientation and health data. And now, a report has proposed that When a vast majority of the apps from those caught sharing sensitive data by the social media giant have stopped sharing the information, a number of major of Android apps continue continue to share the consumer data by the platform. German mobile safety company, Mobilsicher, carried out a similar research with the iOS version of these apps and during their research they found the iOS versions of the above mentioned apps to share consumer data with Facebook everytime the app was opened, like their Android siblings. And ever a number of apps are continue sending this data to Facebook, it would give the company an unfair competitive advantange. We alextremely have evidence that proposes which this feature didn't always work as it was intended," the watchdog added.
