7 分钟Foreign I'm Jared and this is Changelog News for the week of Monday, February 3,
2025 Last week's freakout about deep seek subsided after people realized
that its 5.6 million dollar price tag was just the GPU cost of the pre training run
and the actual total cost is likely up in the billions where we'd expect it to be.
This week's freakout is all about the tariff induced trade war.
What will next week's freakout be?
Hang tight friends.
I'm sure the writers will come up with something.
Okay, let's get into this week's developer News worth your attention.
Everyone knows your location
after learning of a massive data leak that exposed 2,000 apps secretly collecting GLD geolocation data
without user consent,
Tim Sh looked into the list and found three apps that he has installed on his iPhone.
In that list.
That gave him an idea.
Could he track himself down externally?
As in to buy his geolocation data leaked by some application?
So he grabbed an old iPhone 11, restored it to factory defaults with a brand new Apple id,
set up Charles proxy to record all traffic coming in and out,
installed a single game name stack by Ketchapp and logged all of his findings.
