Objectively, ads are not spyware, thats a fact. Objectively, Google is not a spyware either, thats a fact regardless of your opinion. Every instance has their own servers, right now lemmy.world is super slow, earlier they disabled comments to mitigate an attack. Sync relies on your instance being reachable to work.

    Well, don't use the word if you don't know what it means. Sure, ads by its nature are not ads. But ads that track you are spyware.

    Objectively, Google is not a spyware either, thats a fact regardless of your opinion.

    Google Play Services are a spyware, they track so many things about you.

    I don't understand what the rest of your comment refers to.

    By definition the ads the app uses are not spyware, therefore it is a fact.

    Google Play Services by definition is not spyware, again, fact.

    Not everything that tracks users is spyware, I'm really hating this place being anti everything that is not FOSS...
