As @pkafka reports on @Recode, you’ll be hearing a lot of griping about this from Facebook and other leaders of the toxic ad tech privacy theft industry. They’ll frame it as hurting small publishers. But all it does is give consumers clear choices. — PolitiTweet.org

Apple wants to stop advertisers from following you around the web. Facebook has other ideas. https://t.co/SmCVAjATmr

In the forthcoming version of iOS, @Apple is simply switching from an obscure opt-out system for apps that want to track users across the web to an explicit opt-in system. At last! In my view, we should have a law requiring explicit opt-ins for the collection of personal data. https://t.co/Yrz2vNX4tV — PolitiTweet.org

Any consumer who’s fine with being tracked all over the web can simply opt to allow it. Let’s see if the ad tech industry rewards them. In my opinion, their targeted ads suck, and certainly aren’t worth being tracked. — PolitiTweet.org
