tl;dr; Apple stopped Facebook from tracking (for privacy lol), now Apple gets more cash in the ad game because they are the only ones that can track. Well played Apple.

I actually would have no problem with that. The move on itself, clearly spoken out, ( or not ) would have been a great victory against Facebook.

I have a problem with Apple's hypocrisy of doing that but labelling it as a move of privacy. And this hypocrisy is only the tip of the Iceberg.

But the saddest thing is that most people dont see it. iPhone 14 will likely continues to sell like hotcakes.

If that's the story it sounds like an antitrust investigation might be in order. Which to me is ridiculous and makes sense at the same time...strange.
