Vancouver Registry File Number 5LL2969. Nature of Opinion Sought I understand that my opinion is being sought to assist the Court in determining whether or not iOS4x functions in breach of users'privacy and security rights. Opinion iOS4x stores specific location based data in unencrypted form, including dates and tÍmes, assocÍated to geographic location coordinates, on devices that run on it. That data is copied onto any computer the devices are connected to when they are backed up. This location data spans a period of approximately one year prior to any given back up and is easily accessed using free tools readily available on the internet. Each backup file contains specific geographical location coordinates, including date and tÍme stamps, in unencrypted form, for approximately one year prior to the date the backup was taken. Each successive backup file contains new location data for approximately one year prior to the date of that backup, thereby increasing the aggregate location based data stored in unencrypted form. Reasons for Opinion and Description of Research and Analysis The reasons for my opinion are based on the research and analysis performed by me as described in Appendix "4" regarding the location based data stored on Apple Inc. devices that run iOS4x and the backup of this data to computers connected to the devices when the devices are backed up. The process and methodology that I used to preserve, recover and analyze the location based data stored on Apple Inc. devices running on iOS4x, and their respective backup files, is included in Appendix "A". iOS4x Location Based Services Analysis Report Factual Assumptions: I assumed that the exhibits ("Exhibits") examined by me: Exhibit L - #4CA1081: iPhone 3GS Serial #799462PP3NP (MRitchie's iPhone) Exhibit 2 - #4C41082: iPhone 3GS Serial #87024SLKEDG fiphone3gs) Exhibit 3 - #TCS: iPhone 4 Serial #881113G844T (Mommy's iPhone4) backup file and their associated backup files are a representative sample of devices sold in Canada by Apple Inc. that run on iOS4x and the associated backup files are a representative sample of backup files that relate to these devices and that, therefore, my findings are representative of findings expected on other Apple Inc. devices sold in Canada that run on the same i0S4x and their backup files. Methodology: Exhibit 1 (#4C41081) and Exhibit 2 [#4C41082) were examined using industry standard methodology and tools described in Appendix "A". The backup file of the third exhibit [#TCS) was previously obtained by another professional services firm and provided to me as a backup file. This backup file was examined using the same methodology and tools as for Exhibit L and Exhibit 2. Findings: Each of the Exhibits exhibits analyzed produced a "consolidated.db" database file when backed up using iTunes software. This "consolidated.db" database file contains an unencrypted twelve month cache of latitude and longitude geographical coordinates as well as date and timestamps of the respective coordinates. This "consolidated.db" database file also contained the unique serial number of the iPhone being backed up. 4 iOS4x Location Based Services Analysis Report Advice and Certification I am aware that I have a duty, in giving an opinion to the court, to assist the court and not be an advocate for any party.
