lets just call a spade a spade. For better or for worse Apple's steps are essentially screwing up facebooks business model. Now to do that out of "privacy concern" is at the very least, morally bankrupt
As to your second point about App stores 'skeevines', i shall concede to you due to lack of knowledge.
As to making more ads being a prejorative of Apple, i'm still not happy with ads and certainly not more, and less specific ads.
- mektrik 6y ago> For better or for worse Apple's steps are essentially screwing up facebooks business model If you need an argument in support of why Apple's move is really targeted at publishers like Facebook, take a look at the ATT/app tracking transparency prompt that Apple have designed. It doesn't call out any of the benefits of allowing tracking (healthy for the free app ecosystem, helps publishers), rather it's just: "Allow {app} to track your activity across other companies' apps and websites?"
- p49k 6y agoThat sounds like a direct, honest and correct explanation of the result of agreeing to the prompt. I see no reason why they should include propaganda from Facebook along with it.
- rchaud 6y ago> For better or for worse Apple's steps are essentially screwing up facebooks business model. They chose to become a sharecropper on Apple's farm. Facebook still works on web browsers and iOS offers one. Whatever problems Facebook has with that are shared with all other websites that don't want third party cookies blocked on iOS. Facebook hasn't been personally targeted here.
