@Anomnomnomaly Anytime I'm told I need an app, I go directly to the Play store or F-Droid and search for it, no trusting QR codes and I'm suspicious of links too.

@Anomnomnomaly @taur10 This! Before I moved from Newcastle, Australia last year, I tried to park in the CBD to go to a restaurant with friends. The signs told me the *only* way to pay for parking was to download and sign up for an app. I didn't pay. @Anomnomnomaly @taur10 yeah, I try to do this as MUCH as possible but sometimes, it's entirely unnavoidable @Anomnomnomaly @taur10 I'm willing to use a website for this but try to avoid another app on the phone. |

If any company asks me to install an app to use their company, or purchase a product... I shop elsewhere. I don't install apps I don;t need so that every fucker out there can steal/harvest my data and invade my privacy without my consent.
