if you pay for ad removal the tracking stops

Oh cool, so if you pay to remove the ads the developer added in to make you pay, you won’t be tracked. Maybe.

The tracking is just part of the Google ads, it's not a separate thing, so if ads are disabled then it isn't intermented so no ads or tracking. The guy wants to be paid for his work, I don't think that's unfair.

Just gotta take his word on that I guess since the app isn’t open source.

Reddit wanted to be paid for their work too btw. Many found that to be unfair.
