SpyTunes: Find out what iTunes music someone else has
SpyTunes
McAfee shows that iTunes' gift flow discloses a stranger's library. Assemble a playlist, start gifting it to a target email address, and iTunes names a track the recipient already owns before any sign-in or payment. Deleting the named track and resending repeats the probe, and the same oracle works for purchased video and paid apps.
