150M is ridiculously low for a company with a 3.34T market cap.

It's the equivalent of fining a millionaire 150 EUR, or a regular person fifteen cents.

That's not a fine, it's a show put on for people who can't do division.

Do you actually agree with the fine?

Don't give users a choice in tracking: complaints Give users a choice in tracking: now it's too many pop ups

The issue here is that Apple only needs one click to sell your data (and yes they do it, they made 11B $ on ads last year) and others need two.

In fact Apple is making more and more money on ads because they limit data access to third parties, but still sell yours in search and store.

No, the issue in the article is that 3rd parties feel they need additional consent. That's on them if they choose to do it.
