If you believe that's really true I'm probably not the one to change your mind.

Browsers usually don't even ask for any permissions, where iOS and Android apps do, and explicitly state what data they'll steal.

It's much easier to fingerprint your behavior when using the web than it is when using apps.

Unless you're only talking about "the wrong kind of apps" but then I could continue about "the wrong kind of websites".

But hey, you do you. Happy tracking.

Edit: I feel sad that sites like The Verge et al. trick people who want to learn in those kind of directions. They're writers, not tech people. They earn from ads! Don't listen to them.

You could as much harvest more data from a browser honestly. Most apps are sandboxed, a browser shares its cookies.
