My #Android phone installs games with every serious update. Even though I deselected them - the idea alone of having to opt out of useless crap like #CandyCrush is bad enough in itself, but this is opting out *in vain*.
These people have completely lost their minds. -

Es gibt 2 Arten, wie du mit deinem Computer umgehen kannst.
Entweder wirst du als unmündiges Kind behandelt, das überwacht, erzogen und gegängelt werden muss. Du darfst gar nichts selbst entscheiden, bekommst aber Candy und die bunten Perlen. Oder du benutzt Linux und wirst ein mächtiger Schwarzmagier? Deine Entscheidung.https://word.undead-network.de/2026/01/15/es-gibt-2-arten-wie-du-mit-deinem-computer-umgehen-kannst/

#CandyCrush can bring #ICE agents to your door.
ICE has bought access to some surveillance tools developed by Penlink.
If you read the description of that company on their website you’ll find an overdose of fluffy and probably AI-generated corporate jargon that doesn’t mean anything:
Penlink is a global leader in digital intelligence solutions. Our compliant and certified solutions simplify complex data, empowering public safety and organizations to make informed decisions quickly and effectively. We believe in the power of data-driven intelligence to accelerate clarity in decision-making for global security, strategic operations, and the most critical missions.
In short: they make tools to spy on people. Through their mobile phones.
And it’s not like they do any kind of rocket science. They have some boring location trackers injected in a bunch of crappy ads SDKs used by some crappy free apps on the Google and Apple stores.
Commercial location data collected through trackers voluntarily installed by people on their phones can be queried without a warrant. Or it can be sold to data brokers, who in turn can resell it to whoever they want.
The list of impacted apps found so far is publicly available here. 12,373 apps at the time of writing.
The list includes mostly games (some Candy Crush and Angry Birds releases, many card games and solitaires, gambling/casino games, sudokus, football simulators etc.).
But it also includes photo editors, weather apps, pregnancy date calculators, network speed analyzers, many VPN apps, and many apps most likely used by foreigners (there are many local Arabic, Chinese, Spanish, Italian and Indian apps in the list).
Among those that caught my eye: Vinted, Flightradar24 and IlMeteo.
My two cents, especially if you are an American citizen:
Avoid apps installed through the Play/Apple stores unless you really know and trust their developers. Use #FDroid instead.
If you can, use #GrapheneOS, or an #Android ROM without Play Services, or that allows you to sandbox individual apps or the Play Services themselves.
It’s even better if you can sandbox or deny the Nearby Devices permissions on the Play Services, if your ROM permits it. Nearby known Wi-Fi networks can also reveal a lot about your location.
If the urge of playing that random animal crossing game that someone was playing at your hairdresser’s can be contained, then please contain it.
Remember that you can also install those apps on your computer at home through something like Waydroid or any Android emulator, in a sandboxed environment without much sensitive data. Without putting location trackers always with you in your pocket.
If Angry Birds asks to access your location, ask yourself why a game whose purpose is to throw chickens at pigs needs to know where you are.
Periodically review from your phone’s settings which apps have access to your location, and when they tried to access it last time. An app that has no apparent reason to know where you are, and repeatedly tries to access your location while you’re not using it, is usually a big red flag.
Always use Tor or a VPN that you trust (like Mullvad or Proton) to browse the Web. If you have the technical skills, try and go the extra mile. Set up your own VPN with a Pihole that blocks all trackers and forwards all external traffic through your trusted VPN, and wire your mobile devices to it too. If you can self-host, then self-host as much as you can.
I’d be tempted to say “go around with a dumbphone if you think that you’re at risk”, but that may make things worse. Nowadays it’s very uncommon for anyone to step out of their house without a smartphone. If ICE stops you and you show them your grandma’s dumbphone they may actually harass you even more.
This part of the story where surveillance capitalism turns into plain boring totalitarian surveillance was so predictable.

I find it curious that Candy Crush “Candy Unwrapped 2025” doesn’t show how many *ADS* the player has watched in the past year, or how many minutes those ads consumed.
Of course it also doesn’t tell how many hours of play either, because that would be MORE depressing…

Discovered how to stream PC games to iOS. Downloaded an app, sat at PC to do more, got confused and now resting cos energy drooping fast. Looked at the software site again on the iPad, found the answer to confusion. Hopefully I’ll figure it all out. Idk how well it’ll work, though.
I’m over 250 levels in to #JewelsMagic which has got harder, but not always, and gives more bonus items than #CandyCrush (stuck on level 288). Some app versions of desktop games seem good too eg Warframe.
-
In app game news I’m over 200 levels in to #JewelsMagic. It has got harder and in a similar way as #CandyCrush, and I’ve used up more bonus items, but so far managed on the second try otherwise. Not getting endlessly stuck makes it playable, which is a nice improvement (seriously, King, not fun).
-
Played a lot more #JewelsMagic. There have been a few harder levels, but they give more useful items so I’ve been able to save some for later (it’s as good and, so far, less money-grab than #CandyCrush). Often I’ve just got to be awake another 4-8 hours before I can sleep again, and still only four hours max.
-
Playing #CandyCrush again having played it years ago. Surprised to find they’ve changed it, all the levels are different. I got to maybe 250 when it started getting too hard, various difficulty levels that take too much patience though I have some for it where I don’t for games like platformers and souls-likes. Found other games like it, namely #JewelMagic which is sweet and sedate in comparison. Others too but without such good artwork, or with annoying adverts. ZenMatch is also nice.

Some of those Candy Crush puzzles you love so much are designed with an assist from artificial intelligence. “We’re trying to deploy AI on existing problems that we have in order to make the work of the teams faster or more accurate, and more accurate more quickly," says Todd Green, general manager of the Candy Crush franchise.
