This YouTuber is actually notorious for not posting sources to his claims. Which is just goofy since he considers himself to be a source of non-mainstream information on privacy.

From my (very limited) point of view, he is just talking a lot of bullshit.

Its even counterproductive, because he is putting quite good (even tho maybe not perfect) applications on the same level as Facebook's application, which are so different that I can't discribe it.

Yeah definitely. He's the type of dude to bring up a privacy concern without being realistic. It's why I prefer Techlore. They at least talk about pros and cons in a realistic manner and understand that a lot of what we want to do with our devices will not be 100% private. It's more so about finding they least privacy-violating service.
