@Gargron All-in-all a great read. Facebook's argument is so fucking weak ATT is a good move but I wish Apple would just do the real right thing and ban facebook from the app store. @Gargron Thanks to this I am one step away from being able to remove the Facebook SDK entirely from my day job app, and it makes me so happy. Generally I'm not a huge Apple fan, underated hardware overpriced with built-in heavy censorship, but when one of my favorite hated corporations goes after another it kind of turns into the Enemy of your enemy is your friend kind of deal.
@Gargron good for apple, so far as that goes. Hopefully we continue to see laws enacted making this stuff mandatory so that we don’t have to rely on one company’s desire for good pr. @Gargron “Screwed” implies that Apple did something wrong, but if I had a nickel for every crap headline I’d have retired to a beach house in Malibu.

@Gargron first time I am jealous of Apple users ever. This inspires me to try the #lineageos + #fdroid life again. @Gargron they've finally done something good after 45 years of existence on this planet we call Earth When you consider user consent an existential threat to your business model, you have a shitty business model. |
@Gargron We love to see it, don't we folks?
