>Recently I read about a massive geolocation data leak from Gravy Analytics, which exposed more than 2000 apps, both in AppStore and Google Play, that secretly collect geolocation data without user consent. Oftentimes, even without developers` knowledge. I looked into the list (link here) and found at least 3 apps I have installed on my iPhone. Take a look for yourself! This made me come up with an idea to track myself down externally, e.g. to buy my geolocation data leaked by some application.

I have installed on my iPhone

You're a fucking moron. Not because you have an iPhone, but because iOS allows system-wide adblockers to be installed. If you don't have one installed, you're a fucktard.

I found a couple requests sent by my phone with my precise location + 5 requests that leak my IP address,

Again, you're a fucktard. Turn off location services. Your IP address is almost useless, mine currently says I'm in Seattle. When I go to work, it says I'm in Virgina. Or Cleveland. Or do you need to know where the nearest starshits and you don't can't handle the "Use location?" prompt when you have services off?

Don't worry about that, the phone company knows where you are basically because it has to know which tower you're talking to.
