I think in case of any smartphone OS, you are sadly not really the owner of the device and in contrast the manufacturer has wide reaching permissions for everything. That is partially true for desktop OS as well, but at least here you can override everything to your liking. Those that argued for these mechanism in the interest of security do not get any sympathy from me.
Complaining after that fact seems pointless. If you had administrative rights, you wouldn't have as many issues with being tracked. Being able to freely modify the software running the device and accessing its hardware in the same manner would paint a different landscape.
