With iOS 14.5, Apple introduced the option to opt out of ad-related tracking, which some companies like Facebook generally disagreed with. However, it still happened despite Facebook’s and other companies worrying it will hurt their ad business. And now, Bloomberg reports that Google has a similar feature planned for Android phones as well.
Google will let you disable tracking altogether on your Android phone
Google’s approach differs from Apple’s in regards to how you might disable ad-related tracking. While on iPhone, running iOS 14.5 or higher, you can use the button “Ask app not to track” for specific apps you don’t want to track the places you visit online, Google will reportedly have a toggle that will allow you to disable the tracking altogether.
