Facebook: Apple privacy changes will muck up online ads Facebook is pushing back on Apple's new privacy rules for iOS users — and putting developers in the middleOAKLAND, Calif. -- Facebook is pushing back on new Apple privacy rules for its mobile devices — and putting app developers in the middle. Apple says the latest version of its mobile operating system, iOS 14, is designed to protect people's privacy. Facebook said that because of this change, it will no longer collect the identifier for advertisers on its own apps for iOS 14 devices. It is also asking businesses to create new ad accounts dedicated solely to running ads for apps for iOS 14 users in order to comply with Apple's new rules. But the very least, it’s going to make it harder for app developers and others to grow using ads on Facebook and elsewhere."
