An amazing bit of digital detective work here. Seems like Linux mobile is your only off ramp from being exhaustively tracked

    Ah, there’s also this piece in json:

    "uc": "1", // User consent for tracking = True; OK what ?!
    

    My guess is that developers are pretending to get user consent to get more money from the ads. Unity could be encouraging this somehow but good luck proving that.

      Easier to ask forgiveness than permission. Most companies are so big, getting caught is relatively cheap with how low the fines are compared to their annual profits.

      It’s just a line item on their expense sheets, anymore, and most people don’t have the money to get the justice they deserve in court.
