Sensor Tower owns ad blocker and VPN apps that collect user data
This is literally, one among many reasons (ha!), why I use Firefox. Every other browser vendor is a for-profit entity, and as such will limit good ad-blocking measures as Safari and Chrome have done recently with their new "security" policies.This is also why I don't use a VPN I don't run (or certainly not one that hasn't been audited with a good reputation), and I certainly would never fucking dream of using a free VPN unless all the traffic over it is absolutely worthless.... How many of these things install root certs where even after you've canceled your subscription you're still accepting their bullshit?On the other hand, this could make for a hilarious experiment using adversarial neural networks to troll the assholes mining data from the VPNs.
