This is after forcing login to a store account:

At least they don’t hide in their ToS that:

“l agree to let Walmart monitor my use of Walmart WiFi, including to:

  • Determine my presence in Walmart stores
  • Associate information about me with my Walmart account
  • Improve products and services
  • Gather market insights about my in-store purchases and activities”

But that’s not enough, they need to monitor your internet activity further too.

  • Allegations of predatory pricing and supplier issues

    You seemed to claim that there are thousands of security researchers that have found that iOS monitors you more than Android, yet you offer no proof, only a shit attitude.

    Sure I made a snarky remark, but my point still stands, you have no links to reports confirming your claim.

    I was open to read about this, but your attitude has made me less so.

      You’ve made up arguments and comparisons. Google services monitor you. Android (as stated earlier) or AOSP or even pixel os doesn’t. There is a difference. The OS is quite locked down. Nobody is forcing you to use any Google services. I’m sorry you missed that nuance.

        Exactly what argument did I make up?

        Google is an advertisment company, this is a fact, Apple is a tech company, this is also a fact.

        My own feelings are also a fact.
