IIRC it's sha256. Is that really reversible now? For sure on a rainbow table for something like cell phone. but i don't know why that would matter? Anyone can generate all the possible phone numbers. The whole point is that it is matchable. Like if they already have my email then they know if it's a match, but if they don't have my email they don't know what the missing email is. Like what's my email from this (witho…
Depends, for DOB and phone numbers the search space is finite and very small for a modern computer (especially so for a big tech adversary having access to near-infinite computing power) so you can just enumerate all the possibilities. Names and emails can be bruteforced with various lists from existing data breaches or data brokers and you'll probably reverse 80% of them. However reversing them is not even necessary…

How does including telemetry for a product make a commitment to privacy from unrelated companies' tracking "smoke and mirrors"? There's a difference between the privacy I expect from a direct service provider and from various random agents seeking to build a profile on me.
Your argument is literally exactly the same argument Facebook uses to justify all its spying. It's not a solid ideological base to build upon. I don't want ANYONE spying on ANYTHING that I'm doing, even if they think it's for my own good and it's not crossing a line. > How does including interest-based tracking for a product make a commitment to privacy from unrelated companies' tracking "smoke and mirrors"?

There's a difference between Facebook collecting data when I'm on their site and collecting data from embedded trackers. Draw the line wherever you want, just don't conflate different things just because they're both disagreeable to you.
