IOS devices dominate Internet traffic in the last 6 months
According to a recent study by Chitika we learned how to share Internet traffic from mobile devices. According to data obtained during the past six months, two-thirds of mobile devices accessing the Internet belong to Apple, ie more than half of all traffic. Meanwhile, devices with Android system are the remaining third of devices that access the Internet.
No doubt, it is noteworthy that low in the presence of Internet traffic by Android phones and tablets versus Apple's dominance, is that if we add the sales of all devices sold any brand running Android OS are higher than sales of the iPhone and iPad. So if sales are superior why are barely present in one third of Internet access from them? Possibly the reason is that users of the bite block, despite being less in number, using more terminals to access the network of networks, i.e., they are more active.
The study centers between May and November of this year and in it we see the U.S. company has managed to maintain the lead over the six months to 67 percent, a fairly high percentage, while Android was moving around in percentages 33 percent.
As mentioned above, although there are more people with an Android smartphone or tablet with these devote much less time to surf the Internet with them, a trend that is strengthened with the passage of time. So much so, that the use of Internet in iOS has increased by 2 percent, the same figure that has fallen on the devices with the Google system.
Finally, note that the iPad is the tablet that clearly dominates the Internet traffic in the tablet market, being the undisputed king with an almost complete domination over Android.

Device-ID replacement in iOS 6 faulty
The AAI allowed to follow on user behavior across applications in order to present them can be personalized advertising - report if several or even many devices the same AAI is all zeroes, it does not work of course. The new technology replaces the previously used UDID, an instrument identification, as opposed to the AAI is always clear and not erasable. Apple forbids the UDID-use ever since iOS 6, the identification numbers are as protected under data protection and data leaks were already in place under a big issue.
Apple has said nothing on the problems with the AAI so far. The second UDID replacement, called the Vendor Identifier, which is not advertisers, but developers available to prepare, so far apparently no problems.
iOS 6 will be released on September 19
At WWDC 2012 and it became a review of the major developments that would bring iOS 6, took three months testing beta versions, specifically to beta 4, and now Apple has returned to give an overview of iOS, confirming that officially launched September 19.

The new commitment of the boys from Cupertino has the features we already had shown:

WhatsApp will also create simple passwords on iOS
The popular SMS replacement WhatsApp is also iOS generate the password used to log in a very primitive way: According to the Italian blog Ezio Amodio here simply takes the client's MAC address of the WLAN interface twice and generates an MD5 hash: md5 (AA: BB: CC: DD: EE: FFAA: BB: CC: DD: EE: FF).
Demonstrate this should extract from the disassembled code of the iPhone app. Should the allegations prove true, this would be a major security issue: To authenticate WhatsApp uses namely only the phone number of the user and the automatically generated password. If you use the app about the hotspot, the other wireless users easily read along this information - and so could potentially take over the account permanently.
The MAC address is already in the public network and the phone number is - despite the recent introduction of message encryption - in clear text in the broadcast news as a test by heise Security found.
