"textContent": "I mean, it’s not only small areas sometimes. If you post a screenshot of an app like Settings or any Material You colored app, even the background is tinted.\n\nThis raises the question: Which color to choose if unavoidable?\n\nThe fixed blue one as it is a common favorite color? LineageOS stock wallpaper Monet green as it might be common?\nOr possibly the most common color: a Google blue (is this even a thing anymore?) profile loaded with ColorBlendr?\n\n-\n\nAlso, now that I’m in this rabbit hole, you can even be fingerprinted by “Font size” and “Display size” settings (or in dev settings: “Smallest width” dpi setting or “Display cutout”/notch of your device).\n\nBad actors may not do it _yet_ or don’t realize it can be done, but the possibility to analyze these is there.",
