@mferrini Because they, and the toxic ad-tech industry that funds them, don’t ask permission, don’t notify those they track, and prefer to operate in the dark. All Apple is doing is bringing it into the light and letting users choose. — PolitiTweet.org

Why is Facebook so afraid of this simple opt-in panel Apple will soon build into its devices for every app (not just Facebook)? If tracking people all over the web is harmless or beneficial, shouldn’t they be able to convince people to allow it? ⁦@Facebook⁩ ⁦@Apple⁩ https://t.co/0NKDAGCcWS — PolitiTweet.org

@vj_slipstream @Facebook @Apple If @Facebook institutes a fully transparent, totally honest, fully comprehensive plain English explanation of its tracking and collection of private information, and requires a clear opt-in by current and future users in order to use its service, that would seem to me to be fine. — PolitiTweet.org
