Apple’s App Tracking Transparency feature, which so worried Facebook that it took out full page ads warning against, has seemingly made no difference in the number of third-party trackers, or tracking connection attempts.

That’s according to the Lockdown Privacy app who have crunched the number, using ten top ranked apps: Yelp, Telegram, Grubhub, Run Rich 3D, Starbucks, Streamer Life!, Subway Surfers, Cash App, DoorDash and Peacock TV.

Despite users choosing ā€œAsk App Not To Trackā€, the apps could still track users, and were given the users’ IP addresses, regardless.

Lockdown Privacy didn’t mince words, declare ā€œApp Tracking Transparency is a dudā€.
