A new study conducted by researchers at the Carnegie Mellon University revealed that dozens of mobile apps collect extensive location data. The Weather Channels app (2,000 requests) and Groupon (1,062 requests) Google Play Services collected the greatest number of data. 95 percent of Android users reported that they would reassess their app permissions and 58 percent restricted Android mobile apps from collecting their personal data. Researchers will present full findings of the study next month at a conference at Seoul.”]
