My grocery store wants to know my BMI
If they were interested in my location they could request location data. What are the odds they are doing this to directly market products to people based on health data?
Inb4 “They already do that based on what you regularly purchase”
Of course, yes they do. This appears to be one more layer on top of it. And surely they wouldn’t share that information with the pharmacy, right?
Yeah I’m fairly certain it’s the app. If it were Safari it would either say Safari is trying to… or it would say the website so there would be a domain named. I think it’s fairly conclusive this is the store’s app.
