Facebook and Instagram overlays in iOS stoke fears about apps being free of charge
Through grinding teeth, the social media market leader is implementing iOS 14's new privacy requirements. But it can't refrain from a warning finger in the process.
Facebook originally intended to use "educational screens" to reveal details about data usage. Now they seem to be part of a scaremongering campaign. The message: help keep Facebook and Instagram free, and give us access to your data! The hints seem to be a new way to fight back against Apple's tracking protection in iOS 14.5. Meanwhile, the company is enjoying great business, turning over $26.2 billion between January and March alone. The company had already announced that it will expect users to read page-long data protection declarations.
