If you're an Apple user, you might want to read & weep with tears this doc.
<https://searchmobilecomputing.techtarget.com/definition/Google-Firebase>

Essentially, not only are you iOS owners dead with respect to privacy
because Apple tracks all the apps you download from the App Store (Google
can't), but you can't easily turn off this firebase app indexing process.
<https://i.postimg.cc/KvCkLccr/firebase03.jpg>

Those are screenshots from my own phone testing that firebase can easily be
blocked if the user simply sets up his phone to block all app indexing.

firebase is not just for apple, nor do you even understand what it can
do.

yes they can, and do.

it's not an 'indexing process'.

It's interesting that I posted screenshots from Android of the firebase
prior to blocking it, and then you idiot apologists claim the idiocy that
"... firebase is not just for apple ..."

It's not even possible to carry on an adult conversation with people as
incredibly stupid as you just proved to be nospam.

How the hell do you think I took an Android screenshot of Firebase in action
if I thought that it was only tracking Apple application use (you idiot)?

It's incredibly how unfathomably stupid you idiot apologists prove to be.

What's worse is you can't cognate what an adult should have been able to
comprehend given I posted an Android screenshot for God's sake.

How stupid are you idiot apologists that you can't comprehend something as
_simple_ as an Android screenshot clearly showing the words "Firebase?"

It's shocking how stupid the idiot apologists easily prove to always be.

stop pretending to know what you're talking about. you do not.

despite it being well above your head, look at the following screen
shots, which is just a sampling of what can be done:

further, firebase is not the only option. there are several *other*
analytics packages, and as i said, many apps use more than just one.

ftfy.

nobody said firebase was only for apple.

like i said, you need a big dose of stfu and maybe learn something for
a change.

> It's incredibly how unfathomably stupid I prove to be.

ftfy, except for your grammatical error, which i left in to show that
you really are 'unfathomably stupid'.
