    🚨 Breaking news! 🚨 White House app sends 77% of requests to third-party servers! 🤯 Who could have guessed that an app from the people who can't even implement basic security measures might be a bit... leaky? 🌧️ Meanwhile, the other 23% of requests were likely just the app trying to phone home in tears. 📞💧

    The White House app tracks your GPS every 4.5 minutes. The App Store privacy label says it collects nothing.

    A researcher decompiled the APK and found 10+ analytics frameworks, SMS harvesting, JavaScript injected into pages you browse, and a remote toggle for location tracking via OneSignal, no app update required, no Apple review, no user consent.

    No certificate pinning. Debug artifacts left in the production build. Privacy policy last updated January 2025, before the app existed.
