Three cheers for Apple and Tim Cook

Apple and Facebook have been in a very public spat over the course of the last few months as Apple dials up its pro-privacy stance. The two companies have long had tension, more recently however Facebook is taking shots at an upcoming iOS and iPadOS feature that will require apps and data companies such as Facebook to ask for users’ permission before tracking them across other sites and websites.

I use Facebook less, now use Twitter with this blog. And ain't no Zuck gonna track me.

Also proves my point, Apple has the tech needed for secure personal ID and with voluntary provable contracts. That tech will move beyond the iPhone to a range of products from iPads to iCards. Apple is leading that revolution, and soon will will be a contract management app for iPhone.
