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?
No you’re confusing with Android. The iOS ones are rather specific and health data is health data. It’s certainly not trying to access location or contacts or Bluetooth etc. it’s quite specific.
