Since July 18th, Instagram removed the option for users to opt out of online personalised ads through their mobile device settings. Now, you can only do so through the “Digital Advertising Alliance” and not anymore directly from your phone. <a href="https://opentermsarchive.org/en/memos/instagram-removes-tracking-optout-in-mobile-device-options/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://opentermsarchive.org/en/memos/instagram-removes-tracking-optout-in-mobile-device-options/</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/TermsSpotting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#TermsSpotting</a> <a href="https://mastodon.social/tags/privacy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#privacy</a>
