Anyone else check it out? They want access to everything. And there is no website, only an app. Yikes.
Yeah I saw the list posted somewhere, had a chuckle, and went on my merry way. There’s a reason this kraken of an app is banned in the EU.
A somewhat tech savvy user can probably use App Ops and Storage Isolation to restrict all of the data and spoof the rest, but luckily I don’t even feel tempted. Never got the appeal of Twitter, can’t be bothered to even try Mastodon, and Threads, just no.
There’s a reason why it isn’t available in EU.
Also, 78 MBs for a Twitter clone is ridiculous (and alarming)! Twitter asks for 36 MBs while Mastodon only 1.6 MBs!

That is a lot of data collection…
Yeah, it’s why I started staying away from the official social media or company apps.
