New study: Google manipulates users into constant tracking
Great article, thank you for sharing. Love the list of deceptive practices - reads as a blueprint for what to avoid if you respect your users.The "data helps us understand usage and build a better product" narrative is all over these comments and in product teams. Revealed preferences are helpful for building better products. I suppose the story gets twisted when "better" for the business diverges from "better" for the user. Are there ways to achieve a win-win here by sufficiently anonymizing data or explaining why tracking is helpful and asking for explicit consent? Would love if anyone has links / reads on this.
