Another problem is these analytics platforms just keep getting worse. There used to be a lot of effort put in to not collecting any personally identifiable info. Hell even google analytics was strict about that. It also took time to integrate them. Now almost all the packages grab identifiable info by default and some are doing things like making screen recordings. Combine that with a rotating set of product owners like described above and a lot of apps just end up making way too many calls to way too many places. And I do think Apple could and should be doing something more here. Their developer analytics setup is a good example to lead by as it gives users a global option to opt out. They also are able to reject apps for an icon being offbrand so I’m pretty sure they could figure out something here.
