> I know everone hates ads, but isn’t targeted ads better than wholesale bombardment?

There’s a lot of people disagreeing with you, but it’s missing the point, I think.

Everybody can get the experience they want; both you and they can. You can get targeted ads by accepting when an advertiser asks to track you. They can get non-targeted ads by rejecting when an advertiser asks to track them.

The key thing here is that everybody is given the choice. And that’s Apple’s only requirement – they haven’t banned tracking, they have banned tracking without asking the user for their consent first.
