How does an app like Threads get access to financial, political, health, religious or browsing info through your phone's OS. What is the actual source of that data?
I'm trying to understand how an app would even get that info in the first place, how that's classified and why a mobile operating system even has a way to provide that data.
Am I correct in assuming that if an app is used without play store / play store framework that it would not be able to get access to that data?
Thanks!

Not a native speaker and kind of OT, but isn’t it supposed to be “overview” rather than “oversight” in this case? Maybe not necessarily “overview”, but I think “oversight” would only mean mistake or supervision. I was just wondering.
Probably. I write half my comments drunk, so I wouldn’t use them as a basis for ESL learning 🙃
It’s a good catch!! Apologies for any confusion.
