The German Justice Minister has called for Apple to come clean on what data it collects from end users, according to reports.

Sabine Leutheusser-Schnarrenberger told Der Spiegel that Apple must "immediately make clear" what data it collects from users of its products and for what purposes.  

"Users of iPhones and other GPS devices must be aware of what kind of information about them is being collected," she said.
