Last year, an important scandal was started in the USA following the discovery that the NSA had access to the confidential data of some Internet service users through a program called PRISM. Following the discovery of the existence of this program, the Chinese government investigated the geolocation system implemented in iOS, researchers paid by the state claiming that people with access to its data can obtain information about state secrets and more.
The local press claims that Apple Lossless Audio CODEC (ALAC), must assume legal responsibility in the event that these data can be used to harm Chinese citizens, but only if they are taken over by entities without the company's consent. Basically, the Chinese press is trying to convince iPhone owners that Apple would take location data without their knowledge, something the company has done in the past, but it claims to have stopped it.
Finally, the Chinese media is trying to convince citizens to stop buying iPhones, but their chances of success are very low, regardless of the reasons presented.
