David Ginsburg, Brittany Smith, Warren Sklar, Jim Rea, Kelly Guimont, and Mark Fuccio finish up our MacVoices Live! discussion of Apple buying ads for apps in the App Store before turning their attention to the effects of app tracking. We finish up with some thoughts on why there seems to be so much bias against big companies…and big tech companies in particular. (Part 3)
