Xiaomi browser privacy

As it became known, Xiaomi did with its default browser data without notifying its smartphone users.

The most serious issue is that Xiaomi does not allow users to make any changes to the settings of this application.
To deactivate information collection from Mi Browser the following path is: Settings γές Applications σεις Settings System Applications → Mi Browser → Privacy & Security → Authorization. When you turn off the latter, you get a message with the option countdown Recall.

There are also other changes such as Disable ads etc.
In any case, I noticed that the settings of the application are reset to the factory, for example, Disable ads is "off".

The mobile is not rooted, it is a purchase from a proprietary store of the Greek Infoquest agency.

It would be ideal if some of you are Xiaomi owners to verify my writing and ask a question in for the reason this is done. That is, if the whole process simply deletes the data they have collected up to that moment and continues collecting them!

As a solution I suggest replacing this application by setting another browser as the default ( Applications→Manage applications→at the top left 3 dots→Default applications→Schedule ς and select one of the installed)
