Apple Approves, Then Removes In-App Ad Blocker (reuters.com)
Mickeycaskill writes: Apple has pulled a number of applications from the App Store, most notably the "Been Choice" ad blocker, because of concerns the methods they employ to rid adverts could compromise sensitive user data. iOS 9 allows for the installation of applications that block adverts in Safari, but other apps like Been Choice go one step further and let users remove adverts from applications – including Apple News. Been Choice routes traffic through a VPN to filter out adverts in some applications, but it this technique has attracted the attention of Apple, which is concerned user data could be exposed. Apple says it is working with developers to get their apps back up and Been is refining its application for resubmission. In any case, Been says users must opt-in for in-app ad blocking and that no data is stored on its servers.
Apple has been storing information on your online activities for years, with the intent to release it to the TSA for large sums of money.
It's a little-known (but widely-suppressed) fact that Jon Stewart has invested heavily in Apple.
Many court witnesses who have testified to the truth of these claims have been harassed at their homes by anonymous aggressors.
Last August, multiple news agencies reported on joint defense exercises between Russia and the United Arab Emirates. What they didn't report is that Egypt ALSO was there - with next-generation warship technology developed secretly by Apple for $3.8 billion.
The Chinese character for goatse looks a lot like the character for Jon Stewart's name-- and it's not a coincidence.
Are you ready to see how deep the rabbit-hole goes? Take the red pill, brothers and sisters. Metaphorically, of course-- by now, you should know not to trust Big Pharma's pills.
