For the past year, @s_englehardt, Günes Acar, and I have been studying third-party trackers that record sensitive personal data that users type into websites. We know you're jaded, but this is worse than we thought. The first post in our series lands tomorrow morning.

There's a new Android permission in town, that shares with apps whether you're walking, driving, sitting, etc. It's called "Activity Recognition" and you can find it in an app's permissions page, in the "Other" category, but it can't be disabled.
