(Bonus) Facebook Doesn't Like Users Saying NO Towards App-Tracking

from What 'Chu Talkin 'Bout! · host Dray Jaymes

Apple recently rolled out its highly anticipated App Tracking Transparency feature with iOS 14.5, which lets users decide whether apps track their activity for targeted advertising. Overwhelmingly, users seem happy to leave app tracking disabled. Just 4% of iPhone users in the U.S. have agreed to app tracking after updating their device, according to the latest data from Verizon-owned analytics firm Flurry. Worldwide, that figure jumps to 12%, a healthy increase but one that still doesn’t spell great news for companies like Facebook that sell targeting to advertisers by hoovering up user data. With iOS 14.5, if a user has app tracking requests enabled, then whenever they download or update an app, it has to ask permission before it can track their activity. And it’s clear most users are saying: “Nah.” (Cited on:  https://gizmodo.com/too-bad-zuck-just-4-of-u-s-iphone-users-let-apps-tra-1846851013) TO READ THE FULL ARTICLE  Follow and SHARE, LIKE AND COMMENT on my show "What 'Chu Talkin 'Bout!  Apple Podcast Spotify Anchor  iHeart Radio  ____________________________________________________________________________ Follow me on my social media platforms   TIKTOK @drayatdatok IG:  @draykingjaymes Twitter:  @drayjaymes @drayplaysgames #technology #TechnologyRocks #TechnologyTheseDays #technologynews #technologysolutions #technologyfail #technologyart #technologytrends #technologyr #TechnologyIsAwesome #technologysucks #technologyhatesme #technologyinnovation #technologytoenjoy #technologyaddict #technologylover #technologytuesday #technologyrules #technologywitch #technologycompany #technologytakeover #technologybali #TechnologyConsulting #technologyeducation #technologyfacts #TechnologyforGood #technologyfree #technologyisamazing #technologyiscool #technologyjobs
