This bothers me about DJI equipment too. I use disposable throwaway email VPN accounts to activate the products then uninstall the apps.

I avoid DJI when and where I can now.

The only DJI product I have purchased since experiencing this same shit is the Osmo Pocket 3. I know of no comparable product.

I used to avoid spyware apps. My antivirus would flag them so I could remove them. Until all of them became spyware. Widely used apps by well known corporations do more intrusive and more constant tracking that the apps that my antivirus used to flag.

Avoiding these brands is one step, but it will not last long. Only the law can deal with total corporation surveillance.
