FOX News-- According to new reports from the New York Times and The Guardian, the NSA and its British counterpart are using apps such as Angry Birds to collect personal data.
As has been the case with many reports shedding light on spy programs, whistleblower Edward Snowden's documents provided detail into the data collection. According to the documents, a users' sexual orientation, marital status and sexual preferences are being recorded from "leaky" apps downloaded onto smart phones.
But its not just apps...Google Maps data has allegedly been used as a means of recording location of the owner and data of your whereabouts. Angry Birds maker Rovio say they have no knowledge of such programs tapping into users' data.
