While this is a great first step, isn’t one very likely consequence that facebook will pour extraordinary resources into much more invasive tracking using less obvious methods that cannot be blocked? I feel like this is just a start of a whole new era for fingerprinting.

- dwaite 5y agoPrompting and honoring the user's choice of whether to be tracked across organizational boundaries are part of the App Store guidelines. Facebook would lose their ability to publish a native app for iPhone.

Recently they knowingly sat on information that showed that changes to Instagram were damaging teenage girl’s mental health. If they could track users and non-users in a more invasive way the will do that anyway.
