I might have misunderstood this but is Android really trying to push this as tracking as a privacy upgrade, simply because it let’s us choose which of our interests we want advertisers to have access to?

    Android Google

    This may also be known as privacy washing, but as another comment said, this way might be better than just not getting this choice at all

      You are correct about the term, but accepting this won’t make things more private. Instead you need to find settings and completely turn off any ads suggestions.
