Is the data captured by the iPhone and backed-up on the PC being sent to Apple?

Which part of "no" don't you understand?

Apple statement:

http://www.apple.com/pr/library/2011/04/27location_q...

So: "Apple is not tracking the location of your iPhone. Apple has never done so and has no plans to ever do so."

Continuing to troll may not be one of your better ideas.

I don't need the NYT to tell me what is in the actual statement when it is linked two posts up - any more than the world needs a bridge-dweller like you.

Is the data captured by the iPhone and backed-up on the PC being sent to Apple?

Which PC being sent to Apple?

It says here it is

5. Can Apple locate me based on my geo-tagged Wi-Fi hotspot and cell tower data?
No. This data is sent to Apple in an anonymous and encrypted form. Apple cannot identify the source of this data.

Replaced your bold with mine.

It's hardly tracking if you can't identify the sender!

Batbaby now you are making yourself look less like a troll and more like a retard. I recommend remedial reading classes - and this time, try staying awake..

The data in consolidated.db is not sent to Apple, but received from Apple. It comes from a database (similar to skyhook) made up of millions of anonymised reports.

Apple cannot identify the source of this data.

Then what data is sent to Apple, as referred to in point 5?

It is explained in the statement. Neither Apple, nor I, can be held responsible for your poor comprehension skills.

As far as I can see, there's nothing in the statement that says this data sending and receiving will stop.

It's all clear enough to me, and I haven't even got an iPhone
