People using this kind of tracking should be ashamed. But they aren't so mechanisms like this are needed.
That said, unique to the Apple ecosystem are universal links that work very similar to deep links.
So if they don't disable this as well it is a deliberate attempt to lie to users in my opinion, because to my knowledge the same tracking problems apply to universal links.

- raxxorrax 6y agoTrue, these services are a major problem and we would have a better net if they didn't exist.
