Having an iPhone doesn't stop Google handing over your data to the police, according to aNew York Times investigation.
Apple has long touted itself as more privacy-conscious than competitors like Google, and even opposed the FBI over a case it said would set a"dangerous precedent" for user privacy.
The in-depth investigation by the Times revealed many details about how Google uses its in-house database — called Sensorvault — to cooperate with law enforcement. The technology has been praised as a useful tool for law enforcement, but the Times piece calls into question whether its powers are too sweeping, especially in the case of innocent people's data.
