I've made certain to keep these intrusive aps off my computer and phone .... They always offer free, and supposedly "helpful" services. Yeah it sounds nice and innocent, BUT once they get on your computer they are like an undercover TSR spy "phoning home" your activities so the owners can keep their eyes on you. Musk was in on this from the get-go and he used it to his advantage. And that's what made the DOGE activities so insidious.
