Apple devices call home when on a Wi-Fi network Whenever an Apple iOS device, whether it's an iPhone, iPad, or iPod Touch, connects to a Wi-Fi network, it makes a request to an Apple URL (http://www.apple.com/library/test/success.html). The URL looks harmless, and no personal identifying information is sent to this site. It's not exactly a privacy issue, but it opens the door for potentially scary scenarios.
