    Did you read past that sentence?

    I am in no way trying to support Apple but perhaps you should reflect on the very questions and statements you’re making.

      I did, but what you said is incorrect.

      Not giving away your data isn’t encouraged and I challenge you to point out where in the law does that say. It would be stupid to even include such a passage because it would be a blatant attack on the advertising industry and the EU is a neoliberal pro-capitalist institution that wants businesses to operate inside the bloc.

      And I say it again, this is a niche community, but a lot of people like targeted advertising.

      I know, because I hate advertising and I preach to everyone around me that they should just reject all tracking and some have told me “but I want to see relevant ads. If I have to see ads they might as well be relevant to me.” which is a totally fair point.

        I can’t tell if you’re deliberately trolling or not but here you go:

        Data minimization is a key principle of the GDPR. It requires organizations to collect and process only the personal data that is necessary for their specified purposes. It explicitly addresses data minimization in Article 5(1)© GDPR, which states that personal data shall be: “adequate, relevant and limited to what is necessary in relation to the purposes for which they are processed (‘data minimization’).”

          Did you just read “Data minimization” and assume it means that data collection should be minimized at all times?

          There’s a reason why when you fill the GDPR consent popup all advertising companies have the “legitimate interest” on by default, because it falls under the “data that is necessary for their specified purposes”, which in their case means the purpose of displaying relevant ads and paying the app developer some money for it. And even then, you’re allowed to turn that legitimate interest OFF.

          I’m the one who’s not sure if you’re trolling or just a shill. How many rubles are they paying you?

            Thanks for mentioning what you did about “legitimate interest” - at least now it’s clear you don’t know what you’re talking about. I’d suggest reading up on it, looking at cookie banners on GDPR-compliant websites, and talking to privacy lawyers or people that regularly work in this space as a starting point. Have a good day!
