Members of our All Access Pass get the first look at the latest digital marketing news updates each month during a live webinar. I spend hours combing industry news sites looking for the most important updates so you don’t have to!
Facebook News Updates
- Facebook and Apple Feud over Data – The next update to IOS will require users to opt-in to tracking. It is assumed that most users won’t opt-in, which will significantly reduce the amount of data that advertisers like Facebook use to target their ads with machine learning. The impact is yet to be seen, but Facebook positions itself as helping small businesses, and Apple positions it as data protection.
