This is maybe the third time I've seen an article with the same anecdotal proof. If you have any real proof, show us, if you don't be clear and don't use a bullshit clickbait title.

For those that want to spend some time trying to figure it out - take a look at MITMproxy, find proof that they are spying and show us.

> take a look at MITMproxy

This was my first thought. I haven't taken a look yet, but I suspect that if an organization this large was doing something so nefarious, they'd encrypt/encode or otherwise mask what it is their doing. Perhaps, by misdirection, odd naming of params, or outright encryption - take this all with a grain of salt, my domain is server-web, not mobile.
