Tim Hortons app violated laws in collection of ‘vast amounts’ of location data
I recently attended an automotive dealership conference where I was being pitched for a product that would let me know if my customers were at rival dealerships. I poked and prodded to understand if these were legitimate claims or just marketing hype. They revealed that they purchased location data from app developers. I was shocked and surprised -- I don't know why I was because this should have been expected. It really enlightened me on the exploitation and misuse of data by crappy apps.
