I might have misunderstood this but is Android really trying to push this as tracking as a privacy upgrade, simply because it let’s us choose which of our interests we want advertisers to have access to?

    You mean the one who stepped down like half a year ago? Also GOS is not the work of a single person, you know…

        You’re right he’s still committing, however it’s easily verifiable he’s not the only one. Still I’ll give you that, since it seems Micay is quite active. I guess I am a “sheep that blindly trusts”, since I don’t have the skills to audit the code in this case. I will assume you are not such a sheep (otherwise why would you accuse someone else of being so?), so would you please enlighten me on the verifications you’ve done or the evidence you’ve found that makes you not trust the GOS project? On top of that. What do you trust for a mobile OS?
