You, as an app developer, do not have an unrestricted right to collect as much information as you can about us from our devices. The fact that users lacked the tools to protect their data did not give you a right to collect it, just the ability. The fact that you built a business that was predicated on the unrestricted collection of user data does not give you the right to continue collecting it.
