But can't you still have that same experience? Isn't Apple simply requiring Instagram to ask you if would like to be tracked?

It does annoy me that this isn't mentioned more often. Apple aren't taking this away, they're enabling the user to opt-out.

That these are almost constantly being stated as the same thing, only shows that the vast majority of users do not want to be tracked, and the vast majority of adtech has no respect for the user's wishes. If neither of these were true, having the option would not be an issue.

I added “beside the point” because I believe so, yeah.
