    Dumbo Jimbo definitely wants you to think it's Apple's fault that
    certain app developers are trying to circumvent Apple's privacy
    protections in order to continue tracking you, because: troll. : )

    Apple is currently the tech-company of maximum distrust.

    But Android devices are no alternative: https://netherlandsnewslive.com/lithuania-warns-against-censorship-software-on-xiaomi-phones-tech/243562/

    This is only one example.

    Apple is bragging and lying at its users. Full stop. They pretend they
    check and control privacy in their fenced and closed App-Store. They don't.

    Apple reminds me of his opioid manufacturers.

    Only to idiots who didn't think the app developers doing the tracking
    wouldn't continue to try different methods of tracking, as they have
    done in the past. Anyone with a brain knows that as with security,
    privacy attacks are a cat and mouse game. Blaming Apple for app
    developers and trackers violating people's privacy is what trolls like
    you and complete idiots do. You dip shits just come off looking like the complete fools you are to anyone who knows better. Keep up the good work.

    No, Apple is doing something to prevent tracking, and trackers are
    finding new methods of tracking. Anyone with a brain knows that trackers
    have been finding new methods of tracking since the beginning. Full
    stop.

    They pretend they check and control privacy

    There's nothing pretend about it. Trackers are just using different
    methods now. And Apple will likely try to do something about it in
    future updates. Nothing pretend about that either.

    Apple reminds me of his opioid manufacturers.

    That's because you are an idiot blaming Apple for what trackers are
    doing.
