This Week:
------------------------------------------------------------
* TTP Investigation: Apple’s App Store Loopholes Put Children at Risk: On Wednesday, the Tech Transparency Project (TTP) released a report revealing major weaknesses in Apple’s App Store child safety measures, which allow minors to easily access adult content such as pornography, dating apps, and gambling. (Press Release ([link removed]) , ([link removed]) Report ([link removed]) )
+ Using an Apple ID for a simulated 14-year-old, TTP examined nearly 80 age-restricted apps on the App Store and discovered that the underage user could easily evade the apps’ age restrictions in the vast majority of cases, often with minimal effort.
+ The report was covered by The Guardian ([link removed]) , The Register ([link removed]) , and others.
