    The “Sensitive Info” mention had me laughing. Like, they want everything that could be sensitive (health data, financial info, geolocation…) and yet they had to have a “Sensitive Info” category… :,)

      Toxic and “lame” at this point. To millennials at least its what your aunt uses to post either “like this post or the puppy dies” or racist things.

      Pretty sure its even worse with gen z.

    I so wish that Apple and Google would clamp down on this kind of rampant data collection abuse. Users should be able to individually block any data collection point with it only breaking anything that fundamentally relies on it. And it should be done such that the app cannot tell that it’s being blocked, so as to prevent stupid attempts to build everything to rely on data collection even if it doesn’t make any sense.

    Neither Apple nor Google will do so of course. Doesn’t change that I wish that they would.
