New best story on Hacker News: Apollo is dead. Long live Apollo
Apollo is dead. Long live Apollo

I was actively using the app on my phone and it suddenly crashed at 4:10pm PDT. I thought it was just my phone acting up but then I realized that’s about 12am UTC. With the death of Apollo also goes the metaphorical death of all the best parts (IMO) of the internet: open-source, creativity, entrepreneurial spirit. Sad day. I guess I’ll go outside now. Edit: sorry, Apollo wasn’t open source. That’s what happens when I make a post while two beers deep I guess. Hopefully you get the general spirit of what I was trying to convey.

New best story on Hacker News: Discovering that a Bluetooth car battery monitor is siphoning location data
Discovering that a Bluetooth car battery monitor is siphoning location data

Hi HN, this is my efforts in reverse engineering a BLE car battery monitor where it's app has over 100,000 downloads on the Google Play store alone. It turns out it's sending GPS, cell phone tower cell IDs and Wifi beacon data to servers in Hong Kong and mainland China on a continued basis. Google and Apple app store pages say no personal data is collected or sent to 3rd parties. Hopefully readers pick up a few tips on reversing apps for their connected devices.
