But fucking hell I’m actually surprised on how brain dead people are. Most of my acquaintances have an iPhone. If you scroll down, the App Privacy section is atrocious. How can users not think about why the fuck would a half baked Twitter clone require your sleep schedule.
The only permission Threads is allowed on my Android phone is Notifications.
The Privacy section on iPhone is not about permissions though. Permissions for things like notifications/health/etc are separate and can be denied.
The privacy section is about “regardless of phone permissions, the company has to declare that they collect this data themselves in their own system”. Like ie, the threads app might collect its own data about your sleep schedule because they see you get on sometimes at 7am, and again at 11pm, so you probably sleep between those times roughly.
Pick your flavor of billionaire narcissist to enrich with your personal data.
