So that text doesn't say they are not using the data they collected for advertising targeting or measurement. They simply say they don't link the data with data collected from third parties for advertising. They are the only ad provider on iOS are they not? So the argument is, because they have a monopoly on their platform and don't share with anyone else they are vastly different? Or am I misunderstanding something?
- Terretta 4y agoI'm not sure if you're misunderstanding something. Definitely seem to be missing something. I didn't ask what's being done with the data. I asked where it goes. Do you think there's equivalence between selling user data to a marketplace of 4,700 third parties, and an internal machine-learning-sized A/B test? https://themarkup.org/ask-the-markup/2021/09/02/what-does-it-actually-mean-when-a-company-says-we-do-not-sell-your-data https://themarkup.org/ask-the-markup/2021/09/02/what-does-it... Or put another way: > So the argument is, because they ... don't share with anyone else they are vastly different? Yes.
