I'm ridiculously careful about what apps I download. I make sure to do some research to check if it's legit before I download anything.

Yeah, that's actually a very wise thing to do because there are lots of crazed application developers who are twisted in the head to make crazy apps.

And people who want to steal your identity, data, and cryptos so you have to be extra careful with these people.

And that's why I have things like applocks on most of the apps on my phone. That way, if even someone were to hack it, they can't access my data or apps without entering the pin.

Yeah, it's actually the beauty of using Apple products because of its high sense of security for the users data. Samsung is that way a little bit too.

Actually Apple products aren't as safe as they claim it is. There was a vulnerability that Apple had for 5 years and was only patched in 2019 when Google made them aware of it. The Hated One even made a video about it - check it out right here:

Wow, that looks horrible as it was definitely going to cost the user a lot. The most important thing is that they have fixed it already.

This is just one that we know about - imagine the ones that haven't even been discovered yet...

Seriously - It's something that calls for more scrutiny in order to know exactly how things are with it.

I have noticed that even from the check out of the shop they can track you too. Like what you did after purchase etc. these days tracking is a bit pain. 

[Heatman]

Sometimes I keep asking myself what's their main reason for having all these tracking and data stealing from their users if that's the right word for it.

Yeah - we need something like what is on Apple where the OS asks if you want the app to track you.

[skyfire]

Yeah but sometimes those checks too can be bypassed.

Exactly - it would be definitely a nice upgrade to have just like Apple makes it for their users.

Considering apple made recent update on removal of the fbads in their iOS update. I think it's good to see apple is doing this for their own users.
