Google and, suddenly, Yandex are deanonymizing Android users

Imagine that your Android phone has a special "secret number" (advertising ID), it helps applications show you personalized ads, but at the same time it should hide who you are, except for a set of advertising offers

So, in some cunning way, Google and Yandex have learned to recognize specific people based on the data collected for advertising.

What is recommended to do:

Find the "advertising ID" in your phone settings and reset it sometimes, like a password.

Disable "ad personalization" in settings.

Check what permissions you give apps (such as access to your data).

Use VPN

Or switch to what you call "stubs"
