Who is Apptrckr and how are they an authority? Source

Apptrckr, the maker of the app for jailbroken phones said that over four million iPhone users are using his app to download pirated copies of other apps from the App store. The developer of the apps for these jailbroken phones said that in an interview with AppAdvice and said that many users were not happy about the limits placed by Apple on their iPhones and the huge numbers is a clear indication that people are willing to switch.

This Po'd me, I never heard of them?

Apptrckr did say that their program only lets people trial other apps and not illegally download and keep them as speculated. Apptrckr believes that by letting users download an application in this manner and if they really like it they can purchase it even if they already have the full version.

I do not have apptrckr installed myself

If a pirated app was on the phone and not put on through them then how in the Heck do they even know?
