## Resource

App tracking is mostly invisible, but now there's a free & open source iOS app that changes that. Loupe shows you what any app on your iPhone can quietly collect without asking for a single permission. This video walks through what it reveals, why it matters, and what you can do about it. 🔗 SOURCES & LINKS • Loupe: https://apps.apple.com/app/loupe/id6478440557 • AdGuard: https://adguard.com • NextDNS: https://nextdns.io • Proton VPN (Affiliate): https://go.getproton.me/SH12P • Proton VPN (Standard): https://protonvpn.com/ 🔎 RELATED VIDEOS https://youtu.be/E4tJSHimd9c https://youtu.be/d2bJVKcIEg0 🧡 SUPPORT TECHLORE • Become a Techlorian: https://techlore.tech/support/#/portal/signup • All Support Methods: https://techlore.tech/support/ 🔐 MORE FROM TECHLORE • Homepage & Newsletter: https://techlore.tech/ • Our Course, Go Incognito: https://techlore.tech/go-incognito-course/ • Our Recommended Tools: https://tools.techlore.tech/ • Take Our SPA Quiz: https://quiz.techlore.tech/ • Learn more on our SPA Wiki: https://wiki.techlore.tech/ • VPN Finder: https://vpn.techlore.tech/ ⏱️ TIMESTAMPS 00:00 INTRO 00:17 WHAT IS IT? 00:38 PASSIVE COLLECTION 02:23 PERMISSION GRANTED 05:23 WHAT CAN YOU DO? 10:24 WHAT ABOUT ANDROID? 11:02 ACTION STEPS & SUMMARY #iphoneprivacy #apptracking #loupe ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_n_SpEWtqog
