For the employee, this is simply nonfree software, as fundamentally unjust and as dangerous as any other nonfree software. 219 The Chinese Communist Party's “Study the Great Nation” app requires users to grant it <a href=" https://www.ndtv.com/world-news/chinese-app-allows-officials-access-to-100-million-users-phone-report-2115962 "> access to the phone's microphone, photos, text messages, contacts, and internet history</a>, and the Android version was found to contain a back-door allowing developers to run any code they wish in the users' phone, as “superusers.” Downloading and using this app is mandatory at some workplaces. 220 Note: The <a href=" http://web-old.archive.org/web/20191015005153/https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/chinese-app-on-xis-ideology-allows-data-access-to-100-million-users-phones-report-says/2019/10/11/2d53bbae-eb4d-11e9-bafb-da248f8d5734_story.html "> Washington Post version of the article</a> (partly obfuscated, but readable after copy-pasting in a text editor) includes a clarification saying that the tests were only performed on the Android version of the app, and that, according to Apple, “this kind of ‘superuser’ surveillance could not be conducted on Apple's operating system.” 221 The Facebook app <a href=" https://eu.usatoday.com/story/tech/talkingtech/2019/09/09/facebook-app-social-network-tracking-your-every-move/2270305001/ "> tracks users even when it is turned off</a>, after tricking them into giving the app broad permissions in order to use one of its functionalities. 222 Some nonfree period-tracking apps including MIA Fem and Maya <a href=" https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/meghara/period-tracker-apps-facebook-maya-mia-fem "> send intimate details of users' lives to Facebook</a>. 223 Keeping track of who downloads a proprietary program is a form of surveillance. There is a proprietary program for adjusting a certain telescopic rifle sight. <a href=" https://www.forbes.com/sites/thomasbrewster/2019/09/06/exclusive-feds-demand-apple-and-google-hand-over-names-of-10000-users-of-a-gun-scope-app/ "> A US prosecutor has demanded the list of all the 10,000 or more people who have installed it</a>. 225 Many unscrupulous mobile-app developers keep finding ways to <a href=" https://www.cnet.com/tech/mobile/more-than-1000-android-apps-harvest-your-data-even-after-you-deny-permissions/ "> bypass user's settings</a>, regulations, and privacy-enhancing features of the operating system, in order to gather as much private data as they possibly can. 227 Many Android apps can track users' movements even when the user says <a href=" https://www.theverge.com/2019/7/8/20686514/android-covert-channel-permissions-data-collection-imei-ssid-location "> not to allow them access to locations</a>. 229 The Femm “fertility” app is secretly a <a href=" https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/may/30/revealed-womens-fertility-app-is-funded-by-anti-abortion-campaigners "> tool for propaganda</a> by natalist Christians. It spreads distrust for contraception. 231 BlizzCon 2019 imposed a <a href=" https://arstechnica.com/gaming/2019/05/blizzcon-2019-tickets-revolve-around-invasive-poorly-reviewed-smartphone-app/ "> requirement to run a proprietary phone app</a> to be allowed into the event. 232 This app is a spyware that can snoop on a lot of sensitive data, including user's location and contact list, and has <a href=" https://old.reddit.com/r/wow/comments/bkd5ew/you_need_to_have_a_phone_to_attend_blizzcon_this/emg38xv/ "> near-complete control</a> over the phone. 233 Data collected by menstrual and pregnancy monitoring apps is often <a href=" https://www.theguardian.com/world/2019/apr/13/theres-a-dark-side-to-womens-health-apps-menstrual-surveillance "> available to employers and insurance companies</a>. Even though the data is “anonymized and aggregated,” it can easily be traced back to the woman who uses the app. 234 This has harmful implications for women's rights to equal employment and freedom to make their own pregnancy choices. Don't use these apps, even if someone offers you a reward to do so. A free-software app that does more or less the same thing without spying on you is available from <a href=" https://search.f-droid.org/?q=menstr ">F-Droid</a>, and <a href=" https://dcs.megaphone.fm/BLM6228935164.mp3?key=7e4b8f7018d13cdc2b5ea6e5772b6b8f "> a new one is being developed</a>. 235 Google tracks the movements of Android phones and iPhones running Google apps, and sometimes <a href=" https://www.nytimes.com/interactive/2019/04/13/us/google-location-tracking-police.html "> saves the data for years</a>. 237 Many Android phones come with a huge number of <a href=" https://web.archive.org/web/20190326145122/https://elpais.com/elpais/2019/03/22/inenglish/1553244778_819882.html "> preinstalled nonfree apps that have access to sensitive data without users' knowledge</a>. These hidden apps may either call home with the data, or pass it on to user-installed apps that have access to the network but no direct access to the data. This results in massive surveillance on which the user has absolutely no control. 238 The MoviePass dis-service <a href=" https://www.cnet.com/culture/entertainment/moviepass-founder-wants-to-use-facial-recognition-to-score-you-free-movies/ "> is planning to use face recognition to track people's eyes</a> to make sure they won't put their phones down or look away during ads—and trackers. 239 A study of 24 “health” apps found that 19 of them <a href=" https://www.vice.com/en/article/pan9e8/health-apps-can-share-your-data-everywhere-new-study-shows "> send sensitive personal data to third parties</a>, which can use it for invasive advertising or discriminating against people in poor medical condition. 241 Facebook offered a convenient proprietary library for building mobile apps, which also <a href=" https://boingboing.net/2019/02/23/surveillance-zucksterism.html "> sent personal data to Facebook</a>. Lots of companies built apps that way and released them, apparently not realizing that all the personal data they collected would go to Facebook as well. 243 The AppCensus database gives information on <a href=" https://www.appcensus.io/ "> how Android apps use and misuse users' personal data</a>. As of March 2019, nearly 78,000 have been analyzed, of which 24,000 (31%) transmit the <a href=" /proprietary/proprietary-surveillance.html#M201812290 "> Advertising ID</a> to other companies, and <a href=" https://blog.appcensus.io/2019/02/14/ad-ids-behaving-badly/ "> 18,000 (23% of the total) link this ID to hardware identifiers</a>, so that users cannot escape tracking by resetting it. 245 Many nonfree apps have a surveillance feature for <a href=" https://techcrunch.com/2019/02/06/iphone-session-replay-screenshots/ "> recording all the users' actions</a> in interacting with the app. 246 Twenty nine “beauty camera” apps that used to be on Google Play had one or more malicious functionalities, such as <a href=" https://www.androidpolice.com/2019/02/03/google-bans-29-beauty-camera-apps-from-the-play-store-that-steal-your-photos/ "> stealing users' photos instead of “beautifying” them</a>, pushing unwanted and often malicious ads on users, and redirecting them to phishing sites that stole their credentials. Furthermore, the user interface of most of them was designed to make uninstallation difficult. 248 An investigation of the 150 most popular gratis VPN apps in Google Play found that <a href=" https://www.top10vpn.com/research/free-vpn-investigations/risk-index/ "> 25% fail to protect their users' privacy</a> due to DNS leaks. In addition, 85% feature intrusive permissions or functions in their source code—often used for invasive advertising—that could potentially also be used to spy on users. Other technical flaws were found as well. 249 Moreover, a previous investigation had found that <a href=" https://www.top10vpn.com/research/free-vpn-investigations/ownership/ ">half of the top 10 gratis VPN apps have lousy privacy policies</a>. 250 <small>(It is unfortunate that these articles talk about “free apps.” These apps are gratis, but they are <em>not</em> <a href=" /philosophy/free-sw.html ">free software</a>.)</small> 251 The Weather Channel app <a href=" https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2019/jan/04/weather-channel-app-lawsuit-location-data-selling "> stored users' locations to the company's server</a>. The company is being sued, demanding that it notify the users of what it will do with the data. 253 <a href=" https://www.vice.com/en/article/gy77wy/stop-using-third-party-weather-apps "> Other weather apps</a>, including Accuweather and WeatherBug, are tracking people's locations. 254 Around 40% of gratis Android apps <a href=" https://privacyinternational.org/report/2647/how-apps-android-share-data-facebook-report "> report on the user's actions to Facebook</a>. 257 Some Android apps <a href=" https://web.archive.org/web/20210418052600/https://www.androidauthority.com/apps-uninstall-trackers-917539/amp/ "> track the phones of users that have deleted them</a>. 258 Some Google apps on Android <a href=" https://www.theguardian.com/technology/2018/aug/13/google-location-tracking-android-iphone-mobile "> record the user's location even when users disable “location tracking”</a>. 265 | This is evidence that proprietary apps generally work against their users. | To protect their privacy and freedom, Android users need to get rid of | the proprietary software—both proprietary Android by <a | href="https://replicant.us">switching to Replicant</a>, and the | proprietary apps by getting apps from the free software only <a | href="https://f-droid.org/">F-Droid store</a> that <a | [-href="https://f-droid.org/wiki/page/Antifeatures">-] | {+href="https://f-droid.org/docs/Anti-Features/">+} prominently warns | the user if an app contains anti-features</a>.
