See how Fb's ad weasels its way out of even saying what Apple's change is that they are objecting to?
Think with the head of the average print newspaper reader who has no context. The ad is just pushing mental buttons and appeals to emotion.
Apple will introduce a pop-up permission dialog that asks the user if their personal data should be shared with the app for tracking purposes (including ad personalization). That's it.

- bonoboTP 6y agoThat's already been perfected by early 20th century propagandists. Do we learn it in school? Not much I guess.
- tedd4u 6y agoRight, it’s clear FB’s assumption is that a significant % of iPhone users will choose “Ask App not to Track.” Ie they know some significant % of people don’t want this. They just blow past that entirely. I wonder if Apple’s App Store rules allow them to charge a subscription fee if users choose not to allow it, as an alternative revenue stream.
