 |  Apple rapes your privacy as much as Android So much for that myth While Apple fanboys and the Tame Apple Press go on about how the fruity cargo cult being better for your privacy than Android, it seems that this is just spin. A new survey by the University of Oxford has proven that iPhone apps tend to violate your privacy just as often as Android apps do. According to the academic paper entitled "Are iPhones Really Better for Privacy?", neither platform is better than the other when it comes to privacy. "While it has been argued that the choice of smartphone architecture might protect user privacy, no clear winner between iOS and Android emerges from our analysis", the paper adds. "Data sharing for tracking purposes was common on both platforms." The Tame Apple {ress has rushed to defend Apple pointing out that the study was conducted before the introduction of iOS 14.5 in April 2021, which made opt-in to tracking and app privacy labels mandatory on iPhones. https://fudzilla.com/news/mobile/536...uch-as-android |
