I know, right, the fucking balls of Google to fucking say this

Because they are legally obligated to mention it?

Probably GDPR if I had to guess. Seems like anything decent these companies do can be directly traced back to GDPR.

Edit: guys, "probably" means that I'm unsure.

No GDPR does not require google to display app permissions like that...

Your just making things up.

Show me where I made something up, boss. Or do you not know what "probably" means?

[–] DoPeopleLookHere@sh.itjust.works 1 points 21 minutes ago* (last edited 15 minutes ago)

Do you? Because made up satistics are still made up.

This is how misinformation starts.

If your not sure, google it before commenting. For the sanity of the internet.

Do you want the short or the long version?

[–] DoPeopleLookHere@sh.itjust.works 1 points 20 minutes ago

A link to it will do
