They and a million others are always going to be doing this. Get mad at Apple for not letting you wireshark your own iPhone. There’s plenty of anger to go around. Get mad all all three: Facebook for making an SDK that tracks you, Zoom for integrating it, and Apple for letting it through unencumbered.

Do you know what developer uproar there would be if Apple decided to block all Facebook SDK usage? Surely you know most anger will be targeted at Apple, rather than FB.

I can't tell if your comment is intentionally funny, but I got a good laugh out of it.

I wasn't trying to; what about it did you find humorous?
