I just checked my Android device and the opt-out looks like this https://imgur.com/a/1aaN4Ko

I find interesting the UI, the user have to "enable" the opt-out, not enable the opt-in.

It shows how crucial can be this simple switch for the ad industry immoral surveillance status quo.

I guess the opt-out is disabled by default, I think I enabled it some time ago checking the phone settings.

Is your screenshot showing the default setting, when you first checked it?

I'm not sure, maybe I enabled the opt-out at some point.

Can't tell what was the default option when I buy the phone (have to flash it to know)

Also, I guess the manufacturer is responsible of what is the default option of this setting? (or even the setting appear at all).

Is a Xiaomi Mi A2 lite, it comes with Android 8.1 and was updated till Android 10.

Maybe from Android 12 this is improved in some way.
