Jesus. They keep adding more that default to "on," and bury the settings deeper each time. It's absurd.
I literally got a notification that took me to this menu. They aren't trying to hide it
I didn't. I only found out about it through this post.
I also had to dig down two menus deep past the config search results. Looks pretty hidden to me.
I didn't either. Found it four pages deep. under "other privacy settings", nonchalantly placed at the bottom of the last page. And i just did a search for that kind of thing two weeks ago and somehow missed it.
