GROK BOT READ THE TERMS OF ALL 63 APPS ON MY PHONE AND FOUND 19 THAT SELL MY DATA. IT EMAILED EVERY ONE OF THEM A DELETE REQUEST, AND 16 ALREADY WROTE BACK THAT MY DATA IS GONE
nobody reads these. 63 apps came out to about 412,000 words, the length of 5 novels
what was in there:
– 19 can sell or "share" my data with partners
– 4 can use my photos, one of them to train its ai
– a voice recorder keeps every recording forever, even after i delete the app
– 7 still track my location when they're closed
– a flashlight app could read my contacts
then it wrote one email per app, to the privacy address buried at the bottom of each policy:
"delete everything you have on me, stop selling it, confirm in writing."
16 answered within 2 days. 3 are still inside the 45 days the law gives them
the prompt:
"Read the privacy policy and terms of every app on my phone. List which ones can sell or share my data, use my photos, record audio or track my location. Write a deletion and opt-out request to each one's privacy email. Show me the list before sending anything, then track the replies."
the whole phone series is in the article ↓
