I tend to agree with Jeff... the mind blowing volume of information (12 million) and the information tied to it had to come from them.
I do not believe there is anyone who has ever sold that many apps (which would be required to gather this information), other than Facebook...
Hmmm, well maybe it was Apple, or maybe it was FaceBook.
FaceBook uses the APN tokens, has access to a lot of personal information, and there was an exploit found in the facebook software a few months ago that allowed easy cloning of the auth token.
And Apple and FaceBook have a new loving relationship since Steve Jobs left us...
Hmmmmm....
I’m such a conspiracy theorist!
Now only if I could somehow mention the NSA to tick off the list members... hmmmm (just kidding).

If I had to speculate, I would guess the FBI likely got its
information directly from Apple. Apple has obscene License Agreements
and Terms of Service, and are free to do whatever they want with your
data (IMEIs, IMSI, UDIDs, or even data in their iCloud). I know
lawyers who are emphatical about keeping corporate data on a device -
and off of iTunes Backup and iCloud. Apple takes no repsonsibility for
reputational or financial loss, and has no requirement to make an
individual or entity whole. But again, its all speculation and we will
probably never know the answers to some questions.
