Heads-Up For All iPhone Users
This may have been well covered here on the forum before, but just saw a handy bit of information for those of you schlepping around iPhones. Brother 'MarkFletcher' on the ISG Macau thread reports:
'Spoke to a young HK man, who came from HK for a day trip. Told his girlfiend he had an engineering job in Macau, but came from ferry to 18 and would stay for 6 hours and head back!! I asked if he had an iPhone 5 and he did, I showed him the hidden location services data in Privacy Settings, and told him to delete it and de-activate it. He was horrified as what was stored, including precice location and number of visits!'
Checked my iPhone and sure enough, there were several frequently visited locations logged down that I'd have a lot of trouble explaining. Follow the easy to read directions this fellow Punter kindly gave out, and you can quickly remedy the situation, permanently. Even if your iPhone is locked down with a pass code (as it should be), who wants to run the risk of an SO getting suspicious and finding this potentially 'deadly' cache of mongering data?
No raging paranoia here, Fellas, just being careful.
