Government Surveillance: Apple and Google Users Targeted Through Mobile Notifications

U.S. Senator Ron Wyden has revealed that governments worldwide are demanding mobile push notification records from Apple and Google users in order to spy on their customers. These requests aim to gain access to data that can link users with specific accounts or devices. Push notifications provide insight into app usage patterns and make it easier for governments to monitor individuals. Wyden has called for Apple and Google to be transparent about these demands and share more information with their customers. In response, Apple plans to update its transparency reporting, while Google expresses its commitment to keeping users informed about government requests for data.
