We should ban all apps that harvest personal data.
Instead of banning specific apps, ban the harvest and sale of personal data itself. Then the apps people want to use are still given a chance to exist if they stop mining data.

Yes but it’s splitting hairs… If you ban alcoholic drinks it’s basically the same as banning putting alcohol in drinks. Especially for a conversation between laymen on Lemmy
It’s more like we should ban the addition of unsafe additives to alcohol vs banning a specific brand of alcohol
