The specific issue is facebook complaining about apple. That's a no brainer for most users - put Apple in charge, not the idiots at the EFF (supporters of spam for years) or facebook (wouldn't trust them further than I can throw them). What you and others fail to realize is that I PAY apple money. That at least loosely aligns their interests with mine. I've been very happy with what they've done as a result, showing up the EFF and the govt (with their stupid and toothless cookie popups and unders and privacy policies flooding my mailbox). Apple gives me actual control, and backs it with market power that makes it very dangerous to cross them to try and exploit users. Facebook is paid by business, corporations, but NOT by their users. Just think about that for a minute. The specific issue here, facebook and eff vs apple, is easy for most users. We've already voted, instead of forcing tracking off the way they used to, apple let's users indicate what they want. They have agreed with apple, don't track. I personally wish apple would go further, and just force it and let users go into some setting to turn on the allow app to track me setting. Same with the EFF issues about warning on bogus batteries being put into phones. Just ignore these guys.
