- rolph 6mo agoand the reason why that data is available for sale, starts with forced collection of data, if you want to participate in an app store as a developer. you cant sell what you dont have unless you lie lower than a rug. fix the data collection problem and a second order effect of no data for sale emerges.
- nickburns 6mo agoAre you suggesting Android/iOS app developers are forced into data collection somehow? If so, how? I'm genuinely curious.
