Apple is currently being sued because they only apply their "do not use analytics" setting to other companies analytics. Apple analytics still track you.
Given that, I would not trust any privacy setting from this company.
- jrmg 4y agoI wish I could read the complaint (5:22-cv-07069 - doesn’t seem to be available online?) - but I think it’s more nuanced than that. The complaint alleges, I think, that if you switch off ‘device analytics’ on your phone (the ‘Share iPhone Analytics’ setting?), the App Store app will still send some data about your device to Apple.
- esperent 4y agoYes but only from Apple apps, and not just "some" data but apparently "all the data" as in everything you do, every click, every scroll, every button you press, it's all recorded and sent to Apple. At least according to these researchers and this lawsuit.
