FBI Warns Foreign Apps May Access Personal Data - Even Without Direct Download

Image
The FBI has issued a warning highlighting potential privacy risks linked to foreign-developed mobile applications, particularly those connected to overseas companies. According to the agency, sensitive personal information such as names, phone numbers, and email addresses could be collected and stored abroad under certain conditions. A key concern is that data exposure may occur even if an individual has never installed such an app. If someone in a user’s contact network grants an app access to their address book, information about others can also be gathered indirectly. This raises broader concerns about how interconnected digital data can be accessed and shared without direct consent. Authorities also noted that some applications may continue collecting data in the background after permissions are granted, potentially storing it on servers in countries where government access is legally permitted. The warning reflects growing scrutiny over global data security and the handling of u...

Microsoft Repositions Copilot AI as Entertainment Tool Amid Accuracy Concerns
