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. : )

What else did anybody expect?
Apple is currently the tech-company of maximum distrust.

But Android devices are no alternative:

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.
