No it isn’t.

When you download the app you let them have the following information/data about you:

Purchases, location, contacts, search history, identifiers (!!), diagnostics, financial info, contact info, user content, browsing history, and usage data.

Please tell us how any of that is “anonymous”.

Cool dude, you've identified that big corporations data farm.

Random bloke user with a vendetta still doesn't know who I am, and that's who I'm more worried about on the personal scale.

Cool dude. Well you said your account is anonymous, and it isn’t. Words mean things.
