Like half the point of smartwatches is health vital tracking…. Blood oxygen is a major vital sign.

Because it’s all generated, encrypted, and stored on device.

Unless you have some evidence that they’re lying about out their data security, in which case you should probably sue about it and get rich as fuck.

What steps do you, personally, take to protect yourself against that from literally any device you use that has an internet connection?

Boy oh boy I hope you didn’t post that from a mobile phone. It’ll blow your noodle to know what that harvests.

Why what do the GrapheneOS team harvest that I don’t already consent to by installing the OS?

Just… stop. Clearly 99% of all smart devices aren’t marketed to you. The rest of us will enjoy our devices and you can be that one guy in the corner of the room saying “they don’t know that I actually have privacy”

If you’re trying to be edgy, what if I told you there need to be features that would entice people to buy something in order to harvest data, and that pulse oximetry could be one of them without much hardware cost?
