What an independent analysis of the published app file lists for Character.AI (Android version 1.17.4, report of 2026-10-03). A permission says what the app can ask the phone for, not what it does with it. A newer version may differ.
Whole sentences copied exactly from Character.AI's own documents, grouped by subject. Their words, not yet tested: this is quotation, not a finding, and no jury has looked at it. Each sentence links to the archived copy it came from.
