On November 10, 2022, a plaintiff filed a class action lawsuit against Apple, Inc., citing a recent Gizmodo article reporting that security researchers had found that Apple apps, such as the App Store, collected device and usage data from iPhones regardless of the privacy settings users enabled. The complaint alleges that Apple collects personal information and the content of communications in its apps, and tracks users across apps even when users disabled "Allow Apps to Request to Track" and "Share iPhone & Watch Analytics" settings in their phones.
