Experts have caught Meta and Yandex quietly tracking Android users in the background of their devices—without clear consent. This isn’t just about ads; it’s about data being collected while apps aren’t even in use, raising serious privacy concerns.

Editor’s Note: If you’ve ever wondered why your phone feels a little too aware of your habits, this might be why. Covert tracking means companies could be building profiles on you without your knowledge—something that’s not just creepy, but potentially illegal under strict privacy laws. For Android users, it’s a reminder to dig into app permissions and stay skeptical about "free" services.
