I wish I could packet sniff or monitor what apps are doing what on my phone. If I install a calculator, I only want it to math some numbers, not harvest data from me.
Apple is supposed to mention this in the App Store but even then it’s just a tag on an app and there’s no more details.
Anytime you download an app, by default ir has permission to use your Cellular Data and WiFi and indexed by Siri. Best you can do is void all those and not give it any unnecessary permissions
If you have enough data (like 50+GB), try to keep WiFi off and use only cellular and disable the apps celllular oermission in the Cellular section in Settings
Doesn’t DuckDuckGo offer a subscription service that monitors/blocks those requests?
You can. PersonalDNSfilter on f droid. Its great. And scary.
You cant install anything on android without it asking you for permissions.
Stop using apple and you will have slightly more control.
Here are the permissions used by a calculator app Android tells me has “No permissions granted”.
You can’t deny any of those.
a little reminder that trump’s bringing in a lot of reactionary doom and gloom, and the solution is revolutionary optimism. seriously!
TikTok literally checking up your ass at this point
The Internet is bad.
