    It’s really a shame that that is even normalized. Why is it their business to know what apps are installed on a personal device? Just one more way to fingerprint users and advertise to them.

      I remember arguing with a google fanboi about Google’s diktat for Android apps to not have a shutdown button. He was waxing lyrical about how Google PBUH is all knowing and works in mysterious ways. I said google does this so that you can’t turn off its spyware shit.
