In recent days, the limelight has been on the features of the iOS 14 update that we mentioned in This article و ThisThe truth is, the matter did not stop at these new features or updates, but there is something extremely dangerous and complex, which is that Apple is working to narrow the screws around the issue of privacy for the benefit of the user, and to control more tracking and data sharing, and says that this is in the interest of the user first and foremost, considering There is more transparency about this, and this may be a nightmare for other companies such as Facebook and Google, how is this?
There is no doubt that the main victim, as a result of what is known as the privacy suppression in iOS 14, so far are the apps that track you online. Where Apple announced that in order to be tracked by these parties, those applications must request explicit permission for that. Chief among those companies are Facebook and Google.
These things have already been stressed in the current version of Apple's operating system, iOS 13 with the ability to better control the data that apps collect, but turning off ad tracking is buried in your settings.
When iOS 14 launches in September, all of this will change, and users will be able to see how each app separately tracks them and the data that app collects.
As part of this, if there are applications that follow you through other applications, such as using Facebook to subscribe to a game or application, then a notification will appear informing you that this will allow the application and its websites to share your information and data. Here, your data will be used to deliver personalized ads to you.
Knowing this, Apple will allow people to choose between “Allow Tracking” or “Ask App Not To Track” options.
It's great news for users, but it's a potential nightmare for apps that make money from targeted ads, like Facebook and Google, and of course you'll find large numbers of Apple device users blocking this tracking.
Apple does not make money from your data
Apple makes money selling software and services, not user data. This is what Apple stresses repeatedly until it coined the slogan "What happens on the iPhone stays on the iPhone"
You do not need Apple to sell your data or profit from it, and you know that Google and Facebook are interested in tracking you online and getting your data to target you with their customized ads. There is no way to track you except by that, as you, a user of Apple devices, rarely think of buying Android devices, unless you are targeting the higher categories.
Google competes with Apple in the issue of privacy!
Google is already competing with Apple to show users that it also cares about privacy. Indeed, Android 11 came with a bunch of new privacy features. Meanwhile, it is not a coincidence during WWDC, Google announced several controls to help users control their data from being disabled or even deleting, but in the end Google replaces the form because it takes advantage of user data, and Apple does not.
IOS 14 update awesome for users, bad for app developers?
Last year, Apple's iOS 13 was just the beginning of a nightmare for Facebook and Google when the operating system drastically limited the data these and other apps could collect. Now with iOS 14 and Safari blocking Google Analytics according to Search Engine Journal, now Apple takes privacy one step further.
The truth is, this doesn't have to be a nightmare, not everyone will stop tracking, and Apple isn't the only way for apps to collect your data. But even so, this big change in privacy for iOS 14 has the potential to make the life of Facebook and Google even more difficult.
Privacy is not the unique selling point of Google, as people buy Android devices with the ability to customize it as they like. As for Apple, it is related to the quality of building applications, what is the right thing for the user and what is wrong that is not in his favor, and this exists within the walled garden that protects its devices, programs and services.

Thank you for the effort  
Thank you for this nice topic
Apple's powerful and excellent move.
After years of leaving the iPhone and iPad, I am trying to return to it, especially after reading this wonderful article
Apple devices do not need Google Services, unlike Android devices
Often with modified Android ROMs you can get some privacy but with this you need Google services.
Hi
If Apple insists on closing all tracking options, it is up to the user himself, if you want to use the application, you must activate the feature or you will cancel some of the application's features such as chatting or posting on your home page on Facebook, Instagram, Snap or Twitter.
Of course we all use these applications and we need these features, so we will have to enable tracking
May God’s peace, mercy and blessings be upon you
The problem has become public discussing matters of Google, Facebook, Apple and the giant companies in the field of technology and software manufacturing, and if privacy is closed, these companies will not be able to track you or violate your privacy
This company that wanted is able to do so
But the good question that one asks himself is who I am for these companies to follow me and what is the benefit for them to follow me
Sure, the answer is clear
They benefit from certain people, which will not exceed 2%
Big and gigantic companies do not need to exploit billions of people except for what they profit from for their sales.
And if she wants to follow you, she will act by exploiting the lack of response to you. If you want to use its applications, do not give in to it
Apple is among these companies, and even the smartest of them will not hand over the keys to the iPhone completely, and whether it was previously forgotten about it
IOS 14 is not born in the moment. The team working, changing it and updating it may be working on it from two years three. The iPhone 16 may be ready and run experiments on it from now in order to discover its defects and advantages so that companies do not lose with small errors losing billions and losing their reputation as happened with SamSingnet 8
Another team may be working with IOS 16 from now
Greetings to all
Frankly, a frightening and terrifying topic .. Imagine the huge amount of data collected by Apple, Google, Facebook, and others
from U.S
Something that cannot be tolerated. An international law must be put in place in which all nations participate in order to break the arrogance and tyranny of corporations.
I expect update 14 to make a qualitative breakthrough in the world of iPhone
Apple is one of the strongest companies in the field of privacy
But it would be nice if they separate the option for reading and writing pictures with two options
Reading option
Writing option
For example, I prevent Facebook from accessing image content, and many applications are also prohibited
If I want to save an image, I allow it temporarily and lock it again
A point of view, and I do not expect that Apple is sacred. Everyone profits from your data. And everyone accesses your data as long as you are connected to the Internet and do not demand privacy.
A while ago, when I checked the Facebook settings, I was surprised how Facebook keeps track of everything I do on the device through dozens of apps and without my permission, so they know when to use a specific application, where you are, your interests, your list of names, addresses, and many more ... of course this is colluding with those Applications that transfer your information to Facebook or a third party without your knowledge ..!
And when I deactivated the follower in the Facebook settings, I was informed that it would stop showing tracking in habits, but that does not mean stopping the tracking!
The only solution is to go to the iPhone settings and enter each application separately and stop sharing your location and stop everything in it similar to this, and this may lead to not taking advantage of some applications!
This is why we like iOS
And we hate Android 😜
Well organized, the subject sequence and a very special effort, thank you
Google and Facebook are legally trafficking in human beings, as they make profits from users' data. They are not satisfied with their system and devices, but they have also stuck their noses into all systems so as not to miss a straw from the camel's trough!! As for me, I do not respect Google's strategy, and Facebook in particular, even though Google is a giant company with great contributions in the fields of technology and is credited with many times more than it is credited with. However, as a person, I do not respect its strategy of targeting data that crawls like the veins of a damask tree in search of water, despite the beauty of its shade. (Thank you, Mr. Mahmoud, always distinguished)
An excellent welcome feature .. thankfully present in my Xiaomi Mi9t Pro
And in a beautiful way ... so that the notification comes out in the upper bar when you turn on the camera, sound, or access the website, or any option that threatens privacy in the background ..
Hurray and high
Thank you, and always in the foreground, Al-Imam
