> That was GP's point, IMHO. I thought the point was more that until now, app developers have been able to keep how they use data quiet, and that Apple is forcing them to reveal what they do. That's not really the case, the data is just in a format that people can't be bothered to read (Privacy Notice). I think that Apple's format is better in some ways, but not others. There are a lot of possible types of data, but they can each appear in multiple categories. Developers can't justify why they use data in a privacy label, so it's difficult for people to tell exactly how the data collection would affect them (if at all), and whether it's justified or not.
