Skool app stealing your data: How to stop it.

Did you know your Skool app tries to steal extensive info from you via the app? Nice of them to tell us honestly.

21 bits of info, a mere 169 theft attempts.... Why?

I didn't give express permission - did you? 🙈🙈

Stay safer, use the DuckDuckGo app and activate the data safety function, it keeps your data in your phone.

We know Zuck apps pilfer and collect over 1200 data points on you. He tracks you across the web hence the fb pixel to funnel your advertising. Immoral in my personal view. Yep, Zuck's wealth at your expense.

This is why i refuse to have any Zuckerberg apps and I strangle fb on my laptop by using Brave and Firefox (and where necessary Chrome) with the No Script extension since 2010. It blocks everything initially it's annoying approving permissions but when Zucks follows you to your bank login page I go 🖕🖕

If I do i use these sorts of apps its on a second phone that has limited use.

It's good to be aware of these things then you have the freedom to choose if you give that data away.

Stay safe.
