    They’re not “naive” or “trusting”. There’s this thing called “evidence”, which doesn’t exist to support this idea. Android is open-source so you don’t have to trust anything, you can verify it, as can security researchers.

    Advertisers are lying. That’s what advertisers do.

      This is not the court of law and no one is going to jail because of my distrust of corporations. “Innocent until proven guilty” does not apply here. Any batshit idea I could come with on how a corporation could siphon my data, they have already thought of and tried. They do not deserve the benefit of the doubt.

        Who said anything about law? I already said you don’t have to trust them. And you shouldn’t. But we’re discussing facts and reality.
