A better alternative for your privacy to Google’s Play Store.

Google NEEDS you to use its services in order to build a sellable database, after all it is the world’s largest advertising corporation.

In order to entice you to use its programs, Google says it’s introducing features with regards to your privacy, something that is contrary to its business model.
Some of the privacy features outlined by phonearena.com are as follows:
“Google’s new privacy section shows:
  • Whether and for what reason the developer is gathering data.
  • Whether the app creator is sharing your personal information with other parties.
  • The app’s security policies, like whether data is well encrypted if intercepted and whether users can request that their information be deleted completely.
  • Whether or not an app follows Google Play’s Families Policy in order to protect children in the Play store.
  • Whether or not the developer’s security practices are in line with a global security standard.”
We do NOT recommend using Play Store to download apps to your Android phone.

In fact we recommend using as little Google ‘services’ as possible.

a ‘de-Googled’ phone would a good start, but that is another topic altogether.

If you must download Android apps from Google’s Play Store, then a better alternative would be the Aurora Store.

The Aurora Store obtains the apps from Google’s Play Store, where in Anonymous mode, Google does not know that you are obtaining those apps, therefore a better ‘privacy feature’ for you.

If you must know the new features Google is implementing, then you can still browse the apps via a web browser, rather than the app.

What’s better for your privacy is to use as little ‘commercial’ non-open source apps as possible.

A source for those apps is called f-droid.org.

We also encourage people to support the developers if the app you use is useful to you.

Google is part of the five-eyes ‘Nanny State’ agenda.
