My old ones broke two days ago and I needed new ones. I chose earbuds from NOTHIHG because according to reviews they are really good for the money.
Now, their app is asking me to accept this privacy policy.
Maybe this policy is just some general place holder for other products because they sell phones too. And they would have browser history there.
Or I could use the earbuds without the app. But the default tuning on them is very bass heavy and I need to change that.
I use DNS resolver on my phone with a lot of filters, so this shit will get blocked. I think I will bite the bullet for now but this is probably the last thing I bought from this company.
All the big apps are the same shit. The Sony app for wf and wh 1000xm3 have the same distopia conditions on the terms.
Oh yeah I know!
Lately I aim to only install FOSS apps from F-Droid for that reason.
If no F-Droid app available / only Play Store, then I always scan them with ClassyShark3xodus against trackers.
If they're filled with trackers (very likely) and not absolutely nessecary for my daily workflow, I uninstall them immediately.
Currently about 75% of my apps come from F-Droid, and hope to only increase that percentage! :)
