Privacy experts are calling it something else. #whitehouseapp Experts say the app requests access to your precise location, network connections, biometric data, and the ability to modify or delete files on your phone. One developer found it pings your GPS every 4.5 minutes and sends that data to a third-party server. It also contains embedded trackers from Huawei Mobile Services Core — a company the U.S. government has previously sanctioned. Oh, and you can use it to report someone to ICE. And “text Trump” — which means handing the administration your personal contact information. The White House says it’s transparency. What it actually does is collect a significant amount of data about you and send it to places you didn’t choose. Worth knowing before you download. Follow @jessicayellin for more.
