A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.

Telemetry is one more attack vector, and it's not a small one at that.
Product owners need to be laid off to stop the enshittification of these apps. Extremely disappointed in this move.
In the article, they show how visible and easy the opt-out is. While I don't like telemetry usage in apps, this appears very transparent and simple to disable from the splash screen.
