The small number leads me to think that the UUIDs might belong to people the FBI are particularly interested in tracking. If your UUID is in there, fasten your tinfoil hat. Just a thought.

Or it may be have been released by some dude making a fart app.

Or maybe the FBI are secretly releasing fart apps in order to get UDIDs.

I'd give a lot to be on the briefing where that was agreed on.
