Comment on Twitter Is Tracking Users’ Installed Apps for Ad Targeting

Comments

The article mentions this but it should be noted again: Twitter isn't hiding this somewhere deep in their privacy policy, there is a large notice being displayed in the app.

OTOH it's opt-out, by the time you see the notice it has already scanned your device.

Plus you opt out of the recommendations. I'm not sure what that means for it actually scanning your device and passing it to Twitter.
