It reads only the Objective-C\nclass-name strings from each Mach-O's `__TEXT,__objc_classname`\nsection — a few hundred KB of public symbols the runtime uses at load\ntime — and matches them against a bundled signature list. It also\naggregates `PrivacyInfo.xcprivacy` and `Info.plist` signals.\n\nWritten for independent privacy research on apps the operator owns a\nlegitimate copy of. Use at own risk.\n\n## Build\n\nRequires [Theos](https://theos.dev) with a rootless toolchain\n(`$THEOS` exported):\n\n```sh\nmake package\n# → packages/com.trackerscan.cli_*.deb\n```\n\n## Install\n\n```sh\nscp packages/com.trackerscan.cli_*.deb iphone:/tmp/\nssh iphone apt-get install -y /tmp/com.trackerscan.cli_*.deb\n```\n\nThe signature list is installed to\n`/var/jb/usr/share/trackerscan/signatures.json` — edit on-device to\nextend detections.\n\n## Usage\n\n```sh\ntrackerscan --list                   # bundleID\u003cTAB\u003ename\u003cTAB\u003eversion\ntrackerscan com.example.app          # JSON report on stdout\ntrackerscan --signatures ./sigs.json com.example.app\n```\n\nExample match:\n\n```json\n{\n  \"bundleID\": \"com.weather.TWC\",\n  \"classCount\": 5999,\n  \"trackingDomains\": [\"app-measurement.com\", \"...\"],\n  \"matches\": [\n    {\"id\": 5, \"name\": \"Google AdMob\",\n     \"classes\": [\"GADMobileAds\"],\n     \"sources\": [\"plist\", \"runtime\"]}\n  ]\n}\n```\n\nExit `0` on success; on failure, `{\"error\": \"...\"}` on stderr,\nnon-zero exit.\n","project_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftrackercontrol%2Ftrackerscan-ios","html_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/projects/github.com%2Ftrackercontrol%2Ftrackerscan-ios","lists_url":"https://awesome.ecosyste.ms/api/v1/projects/github.com%2Ftrackercontrol%2Ftrackerscan-ios/lists"}
