Facebook is pushing back on new Apple privacy rules for its mobile devices, this time saying the social media giant is standing up for small businesses in television and radio advertisements and full page newspaper ads.
The showdown centers on the iPhone data of millions, highlighting a key battle over the future of how iPhone habits are tracked by third parties.
Facebook on Wednesday further escalated its public relations assault against Apple by unveiling a video voiced by Grace Jones aimed at currying the public's favor in its war with Apple.
Apple CEO Tim Cook continues to takes thinly-veiled shots at Facebook, tweeting last month about the need for greater control over data privacy "from safeguarding your health & financial data to guarding against algorithms that perpetuate rampant misinformation. We need transparency and reform."
We believe users should have the choice over the data that is being collected about them and how it’s used. Facebook can continue to track users across apps and websites as before, App Tracking Transparency in iOS 14 will just require that they ask for your permission first. pic.twitter.com/UnnAONZ61I
