Honestly, I use iOS purely as anti-Facebook guardrails

I trust there's granular permissions so that Zuckerberg can't scrape contacts

I understand there's corruption, and that annoys me. I wish Apple remained pure. But you still have to do this. Zuck is malicious as hell and we need sandboxes

This is also very easy to do on Android. IOS devices are not magic in their ability to block Facebook tracking.

  • Perhaps, though Apple outright revoked FB's certificate after the Onavo nonsense, that counts for something

    • Yeah and why did they do that?

      People think its because Apple are looking after you.

      In reality its because it allowed Facebook to target Ads at Apple users. Something Apple fiercly guards the privilage of doing only for itself.
