Google tracks EVERYONE. Same with Apple and any other company that has access to you via electronic devices How is this news? We really need strict llegislation to end this anti-privacy nightmare we are in.

Because in this case, it is illegal.

Should be illegal in any case. It violates your privacy and freedom to be tracked and only because big businesses have normalized this bullshit do you think it's okay except for marginalized cases.

You don't have to convince me. Convince your politicians that are paid by big business.
