This doesn't make any sense. You don't think that every single installation via the iPhone or Android App Store isn't logged and telemetrized?
- lrpublic 6y agoIn order to use those you agree to terms in advance, and agreed to data processing. That is an opt-in.
- hooooooo 6y agoIt’s really not. I develop mobile apps for clients and we collect analytics (Firebase/GAnalytics, Facebook SDK, hand rolled metrics etc) none of which is opt in. Why is Microsoft held to a different standard?
- mtbch 6y agoIgnorantia juris non excusat. You or your clients may also be in breach. MS aren't held to a different standard.
- lrpublic 6y agoWith regard to Apple or Google recording the applications users install from the store I think there is indeed an opt in. That is the comparison I was making with the new Windows package manager.
