quickOnTheUptake writes in to update the story of
foul play in Apple's App Store, which we talked over on Sunday. The Next Web, which broke the story, now provides evidence of
rampant App Farms used for theft in the store. Here is a
summary of the problems TNW has seen, which includes large-scale break-ins of the App Store accounts of users worldwide. Apple has
responded to the initial reports, has disabled the account of the initially fingered rogue developer, and has called on those whose accounts were misused to change their password and credit card. Both TNW and Engadget, at least, believe the problems go far deeper than Apple is admitting.
