SAN JOSE, Calif. (Legal Newsline) – A class action lawsuit has been filed against Apple by class members who claim the company was spying on them with the iPhone’s location tracking tools.

In September 2012, Apple released its iPhone 4, which contained an iOS operating system software that enabled iPhone 4 to track its users’ whereabouts down to every minute, record the duration that users stay at any given geographical point and periodically transmit these data stored on the users’ devices to Apple’s data base for future references.
