What purchases, from what source? Same with financial information. Contact info and contacts, only if you allow it? User content, what does that even mean? Search and browsing history is likely just from within the app, I don't see how they would get it from elsewhere.
Updated with more context and source links. The real question is, why does it need all this data to show you videos?

After realizing that HN can be a rather challenging place (highlighted in the shocking moderation of the Queen E death announcement thread), I actually took a substantial break from HN. And it made me quite a bit happier. I recommend you make your own HN with RSS. It is substantially better that way.

I'm finally in a place where the only website I religiously check is HN. Because of it's nature, for me, it never takes up more than a few minutes every couple of hours. It took hard work to get there. I use Nextdns to block domains of websites and apps when I realize I spend too much time on them. Could I just allowlist domains, sure, and sometimes I do that when I need to look at something on Reddit for instance. B…
