Apple iCloud Hoards 'Deleted' Browser History Going Back More Than A Year

Elcomsoft chief Vladimir Katalov told FORBES the iPhone maker kept a separate iCloud record, titled "tombstone," in which deleted web visits were stored, ostensibly for syncing across devices. Katalov told me he came across the issue "by accident" when he was looking through the Safari history on his own iPhone.
