#AdvertisingID - Twitter Hashtag

about 3 years ago

On my Samsung device it was extremely buried: Settings > Security and privacy > Privacy > Other privacy settings > Ads I went into Ad privacy and ensured everything was "off" and then also deleted the existing advertising ID. #android #privacy #ads #advertisingID

Motherboard's @josephfcox and @thezedwards uncovered another data broker called Narrative that sells the digital equivalent of address lists of people who installed certain apps on their phone, e.g. lists of device identifiers of period tracking app users: https://t.co/5hBCBUXDkQ

Instructions here. It's easy: https://t.co/49uBRJHAim (Deleting your #AdvertisingID won't stop all forms of #tracking, but it will stop your #privacy being #traded in this particular way.)

Data brokers use your phone's ad ID to track and profile you. Disabling it does a lot for protecting your data privacy, and only takes 1 minute. Here’s how, for Android and iOS: https://t.co/VsPjMbtk6u

Until @NHSX steps up and imposes (and enforces) a ZERO #AdTech / #AdvertisingID policy for ALL tech used in and around the #NHS, this sorta shit will just keep on happening 👇 Whatever happened to "no #marketing", eh?
