Quotes:
(3:47-4:00) “The Protected Audiences API started off its life as an API focused on solving the retargeting problem, but it’s become a lot more than that. I think remarketing will, in the end, be a small part of it.”
(23:00-23:26) “It’s not that all information lives on the device, but rather, all the information that can track a user across apps lives on the device. So our advertisers will still be able to track with their MMP partners. They just won’t know which users are in app A, B, C – but they’ll still know what users are doing in app A – and what they’re doing in app B and C. They just won’t be able to connect them together.”
