Governments Reportedly Spying on Smartphone Users Through Push Notifications

Senator Ron Wyden Reveals Results of Year-Long Investigation into Privacy Breaches

Governments are reportedly spying on smartphone users through their push notifications, according to Senator Ron Wyden.
Apple and Google have been forced by the US government to remain silent about these practices.
Mobile notifications can provide governments with information about a device and its user's activities, even when the communications themselves may be encrypted.
Senator Wyden's office conducted a year-long investigation into these practices, revealing the expansive tactics governments use to monitor their citizens.
Apple and Google have now been permitted to be more transparent about these legal demands.
