Several US government agencies, including ICE (Immigration and Customs Enforcement), CBP (Customs and Border Protection), and the Secret Service, have been found to have illegally used smartphone location data. A new government report confirms that these agencies broke the law by using location data harvested from iPhone and Android apps. The report also reveals that several other government agencies have engaged in the same illegal activity. Sony has also disclosed a data breach that exposed information on almost 6,800 employees and their family members. This breach adds to the growing number of data breaches in the US, which has already surpassed the annual record with three months still remaining.
