    It asked me to give consent to over 50 third parties to use my data right away. It also has ads and hiding them is locked behind a paywall. I’m sticking with Connect, which doesn’t have ads and they claim they don’t have trackers.

      Where did you see this 50 third parties request? Maybe I just missed it on setup?

        GDPR Consent

        It looked like this. It was a GDPR consent. 50 was a wild guess, i didn’t count, but it looked like 50. You could either accept all or reject them onne by one, which i was not going to.

        I guess it only fires up inside EU countries because of the laws. Anywhere else it’s probably accepted on your behalf by default. Fuck ads.
