How does these kind off trackers scanners work - if the thing that they are given as input is an apk?
Surely these APKs don't want to broadcast publicly all their tracking partners, and would just bury tracking requests deep inside the code.
Are tracking scanners really sophisticated disassemblers?
App manager in particular uses a list of known tracking activities/services/etc, as far as I understand: https://muntashir.dev/AppManager/en/#subsec:faq:how-trackers-libs-updated
They look for imported tracking SDKs, URLs, template code blocks, etc.
I have no idea but they list which trackers are used specifically like firebase, analytics etc
