Just to be clear... doesn't Google tell Google everything that is installed on the entire phone through Google Play? Here's my proposal: nobody needs to be able to do that.
- KennyBlanken 2y agoBoth Apple and Google provide virtually none of the data they collect to third parties. Apple collects less data overall, more heavily restricts what apps can collect, and was the first to require disclosure of what general types of data are collected (ie aggregate statistics, vs info associated with you specifically)
- doctorpangloss 2y agoSteam provides lots of very valuable data for free, online, without restriction, to anyone who bothers to check about its millions of users. Pray tell, whom was harmed?
