    Not surprisingly, it does all the data tracking that it can for a “text-based conversation app”.

    Screenshot of the Threads app's privacy section on the App Store. It has the following text: "Data Linked to You. The following data may be collected and linked to your identity: Health & Fitness, Purchases, Financial Info, Location, Contact Info, Contacts, User Content, Search History, Browsing History, Identifiers, Usage Data, Diagnostics, Sensitive Info, Other Data"
