Interesting, iOS has pretty locked down default settings and prompts you when an app tries to access most sensitive data. I think I’d generally prefer mobile apps from a privacy perspective because I don’t have to worry about things like cookies as much.
- trophycase 8y agoThat's a good point, and maybe my hesitance to use these apps comes from ignorance about what data they have access to. It's just them being so pushy about it really makes me skeptical. Perhaps users are less likely to leave Reddit if they are viewing from the app? Richer ad content? More ad content? Notifications?
- achairapart 8y agoIn a browser you have control about cookies, I'm sure iOS can leak more sensitive data even with default settings.
- ndnxhs 8y agoAndroid does that too now but many apps will just refuse to work until you accept.
