I so wish that Apple and Google would clamp down on this kind of rampant data collection abuse. Users should be able to individually block any data collection point with it only breaking anything that fundamentally relies on it. And it should be done such that the app cannot tell that it’s being blocked, so as to prevent stupid attempts to build everything to rely on data collection even if it doesn’t make any sense.
Neither Apple nor Google will do so of course. Doesn’t change that I wish that they would.
I’m still waiting for some Android Root/ROM dev to come up with an Xposed thing or whatever to just throw a “Lie” button on all the permission requests.
