So, I guess Threads is officially spyware... Not at all shocked, but, Jesus that's a lot of data they're wanting.

I don't have an iOS device so I can't be 100% sure, its all well and good that people are talking about the privacy problems with Threads, but doesn't Apple's privacy page say exactly the same things for Instagram? Why is Threads in the limelight for abusing user privacy like its a shock when Meta's other apps also do exactly the same.
Because hating on Threads is cool right now. The spotlight should be on Meta as a whole.
