(By Julia Love, Reuters) — Apple said on Thursday that it had removed “a few” applications from its App Store, expressing its concern that the security of some users’ personal data could be compromised in certain circumstances. The company said the apps threatened users’ security by installing certificates that can expose data to monitoring by third parties.
