Facebook isn’t eavesdropping, but the truth is more disturbing

A longstanding conspiracy is the tale of how Facebook is listening in on your conversations, but the way it is actually serving you ads is much more unsettling.

I have a Google Pixel with Graphene OS and I only install bare minimum of apps on it. I’ve never used Temu and don’t have an account. So not asking for myself 🙂 But I know many family members who have the most frustratingly ad ridden, notification nagging and invasive apps known to humankind - was asking to help them debloat, improve their privacy and free up some of their time and sanity.

It’s a shame there’s no list of those thousands of apps that take screenshots. While its not all apps, it would have still been a handy reference.

Oh sorry for assuming you didn’t already know that. That’s awesome you have graphene os, my phone doesn’t support any custom rom’s really.

I totally agree there should be a list, it would be very nice to know.
