The FBI has been promoting its fitness app called FitTest to help people exercise at home. It’s also collecting your data.
…an FBI spokesperson reiterated the app’s privacy statement, adding that « the app does not gather or save any personal information other than what you select for your profile. »
But the app’s privacy statement makes room for some tracking: When FitTest accesses pages from the official FBI website, it says, « fbi.gov’s privacy policy applies. » The fbi.gov privacy policy states that « individuals using this computer system are subject to having all of their activities monitored and recorded. »
I can’t wait for the FBIPhone and FBIMessage apps.

Do ya think that Apple will pull the app?
My first thought is probably not. They’re just doing what tons of other apps are doing, which is collecting our data.
