That's opt-in, not opt-out.

- nickburns 7mo agoGP states correctly that they believe the default 'choice' of a user should be 'opting-out' of location tracking.
- rcxdude 7mo agoThis is utterly confusing the use of the terms. Opting is making a choice. The default isn't a choice. Opting by default makes no sense.
- rubyfan 7mo agoYeah it is. What I mean is the default is you have not opted in. You must choose to opt in for this type of tracking. It should be a choice that doesn’t preclude you from using a service if you don’t allow tracking.
- quantum_magpie 7mo agoYou are describing opt-in policies — you’re out by default and you have to opt-in to be tracked.
