minus-squareThird spruce tree on the left@mas.tolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·26 days ago@avidamoeba funny. if they hadn’t said anything I bet noone would have cared. But since they DO CARE about dev. ops enabled, that says to me, what are they concerned about? Is there a way I can monkey with my presto app data and ride for free?
minus-squarehenfredemars@infosec.publinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·26 days agoSounds like they want somebody to patch their APK!
minus-squareThird spruce tree on the left@mas.tolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·26 days ago@henfredemars i mean, if they want help maintaining it, this is a weird… albeit brilliant yet sneaky way to go about soliciting community involvement.

minus-squareThird spruce tree on the left@mas.tolinkfedilinkarrow-up0·26 days ago@Entertainmeonly what on _earth_ does the Presto app need to know one’s location for? you boop the turnstile do you not?
minus-squareskulblaka@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up0·26 days agoBecause they can, and you can’t stop them. Just like every other data sink.
minus-squareEntertainmeonly@lemmy.blahaj.zonelinkfedilinkarrow-up0·26 days agoIt was just a guess. Hi, I’m an idiot. You should internalize everything i post. Without exception.
minus-squareJerkface (any/all)@lemmy.calinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up0·25 days agoThis is also my assumption. They are probably getting rider telemetry from the app. But I guess that would be a huge privacy issue…
