That’s reaaally immature of FB to do [Speechless] - blame Apple for its marketing tracking problems. Focus on your mission of bringing good products to market and stop trying to game everything so as to profit from it. The profits will come naturally as it has with Apple products and services.

I don't want to scroll my Facebook feed and see unrelated ads. like if i am a guy and if i see advertisement for make up? isn't that a horrible experience??? I really dun want to go back to the time when we have so many unrelated ads thrown to our face. we are using Facebook for free. what's wrong with giving up abit of our data???

On Wednesday, the drama spilled out onto the stock market, when Facebook accused the iPhone manufacturer of stymying its advertising business, warning investors that its bottom line could take a hit thanks to Apple's meddling.\nTo Track or Not to Track, That is the Question\nCompanies like Facebook have built their entire business models around delivering personalized ads to users, highly dependent on terabytes of personal data. But earlier this year, Apple updated its iPhone and iPad software to stop apps from tracking users without their explicit consent, and the change is likely to shut off the social network's access to data from millions of users.\nFacebook went on the offensive Wednesday, claiming Apple's privacy update has caused the social network to inadvertently under-report customer conversions like sales or downloads to advertisers:\n\nAll told, Facebook said the measurement of ad performances was 15% worse because of the privacy change.\nFacebook, which has publicly accused Apple of implementing the software update to hinder competitors rather than to enhance user privacy, said its advertisers are being misled to think their ads aren't as effective.\n\nRegular Robin Hoods:Both Apple and Facebook, whose CEOs could dive into pools of gold like Scrooge McDuck, claim to be fighting for the little guy. Apple is championing the common man's privacy online, while Facebook is defending the small business owner trying to compete in a vast digital marketplace.\nNot Zuck's Best Week:Facebook shares fell nearly 4% Wednesday, and the firm's Oversight Board announced this week it is reviewing a secret program that let high profile users break the social network's ruleswithout punishment. CEO Mark Zuckerberg was also accused of approving what is essentially a propaganda program that puts pro-Facebook content on users' news feeds.
