    We do not care at all if our info is used for personalized adds, it even better be used for this.
    The problem is that we all know our data is being used for overall spying and behaviour learning instead of the adds, which they use as an excuse to collect our personal data and literally listen to us in every moment.

      Company that makes billions from tracking users is "selling" us anti-tracking features...

      I have about as much trust in that as buying car alarm from a car thief...

        Facebook probably already had a talk with google with these upcoming feature. I'm afraid google might not be able to completely block trackers from facebook and also from themselves.

              no one can touch safari when it comes to anti tracking in browsers

                This means that apps can't steal your data but they can buy it from Google. More money for Google

                  I feel sorry for the people who are going to buy into this.
                  This is nothing but a PR stunt to cover up for their nightmare tracking system.

                      Of course, the goal is to limit competitors' ability to track users with precision. Google will still be able to track you across all your connected apps and devices.

                        "Google is working on anti-tracking features for Android "

                        Hmm, clickbait?

                        Google is working on anti-Google features for Android ????

                        Would be nice, but I doubt it.

                        More likely they are working against OTHER tracking - to monopolise stealing our data....

                          quite hypocritical coming from google.
