How's installing a native app better for a random user privacy or security wise, exactly?
- jrockway 7y agoYou have to send every change to Apple before the user can run the code. In theory, that allows Apple to do more checks than when the code is dynamically loaded from your web server.

- hombre_fatal 7y agoApple doesn't care if your app logs your usage to Google Analytics every 1000ms. Besides, in the browser you have trivial tools like uBlock and the network tab. In native apps, you have to use mitmproxy just to see what the app is doing at all.
- kingo55 7y agoWith embedded SDKs and device identifiers that work similarly to third party cookies, they're not. I understand it's changing too, but not as fast as safari.
