But not once has the problem been the fact that Facebook serves ads. It's also not a problem when Apple does it and the problem also isn't how much real estate the ads take up on the store or wherever they're shown.
The problem has always been how Facebook gathers and uses the data they collect on you to better find out what ads to serve.

The article isn't pointing out a problem with serving ads. It's discussing the PR strategies around the tracking that powers ads. Despite the fact that Apple is also tracking the user, it is winning the PR battle.
