      Exactly my point about privacy! Giving your info, especially for the sake of meaningless ads, means privacy intrusion. I rather not give mine at all!

              This have been a thing on iPhones for ages. I am surprised Android haven't have this build in already. Seems obvious

                Thanks Google, but I already have Samsung Pass...

                  Thats good ..........

                      My phone is running android 7 nougat but it doesn't have fingerprint. Waiting for android 10 and Snapdragon 865.

                        Fingerprint scanners have been on phones for years. It's ridiculous it's taken this long for apps to start having this support

They felt like as if they didn't hide anything, whereas the fact that companies like Google can easily know where you are just from your smartphones.

                                Remember the outrage when YouTube started demanding a phone number to create an account? Now there's not a single piece of information about us that Google doesn't know.
