Google reportedly made it harder to find Android privacy setting
Google’s approach to Android privacy is coming under fire following revelations from Arizona’s antitrust lawsuit over phone tracking. Documents in the case suggest Google made Android privacy settings harder to find.
When Google tested OS releases that surfaced privacy features, the company reportedly saw greater use of those features as a “problem” and aimed to put them deeper into the menu system.
The tech giant also “successfully pressured” phone brands like LG to bury location settings as they were popular, according to Arizona’s attorneys.
