> The experts, from computer and software corporation Oracle, claim Google is draining roughly one gigabyte of mobile data monthly from Android phone users’ accounts as it snoops in the background, collecting information to help advertisers.
Then goes on to give a cost breakdown of how much this hypothetical data download is costing Australian's via their mobile data connections.
The article does state that, but there's zero evidence backing it. It also doesn't help that said experts are from Oracle, which aren't really the most unbiased source when it comes to Google news.
Well, that's kind of my point. Yes, you could hypothetically transmit 1 GB/month batched to use wifi, but the article in question is saying it's using your mobile data (to sow FUD). There is no evidence that Google is sending 1GB/month of data over wifi either.
