Apple has removed hundreds of apps from its App Store after learning that they were using a Chinese software development kit that allowed them to access personal data. Apple says the apps violated the company’s prohibition on collecting user data. Developer behind the tracking, Guangzhou Youmi Mobile Technology Co., has offered “sincere apologies” for the tracking. Apple did not immediately respond to a request for comment about how many apps it excised from the App Store. The Youmi-tracking warning follows the XcodeGhost malware outbreak that came to light in September.”]
