Embed Notice

@h5e @solarbird @hazelnoot that's definitely a concern, but I'm hoping this makes people more aware in general of the problem of native apps that embed browsers in them. The Facebook app has been doing this sort of thing for a long time in ways that the user can't actually notice.

Any app where a link to a remote site opens inside of it, instead of handing it over to your default browser should be eyed extremely warily; they can and probably do track you in ways they couldn't if you were looking at it outside the app.

But yeah, if Google also controls your default browser, there's definitely room for concern.
