I'm getting so tired of the bullshit coming out of tech companies. Listening to these tech CEOs lie and give non-answers to every question asked by Congress this week was disgusting.
Would any user EVER want apps to be able to track them across the web and within other apps? Why would this not be off by default?
I used Android for years until enough was enough with the blatant theft of my data by Google. So I opened up my wallet even wider to go with Apple, as I thought they took users' privacy seriously.
Apparently not.
- Someone 6y ago“Apple will ask users if they want to let app developers track their activity across other apps and websites. […] Why would this not be off by default?” How does that _not_ describe “off by default”? Even if that doesn’t, FTA: “In iOS 14, each app that wants to use these identifiers will ask users to opt-in to tracking when the app is first launched.”
