how does this affect privacy?

Privacy-focused people have one more reason to abandon these companies altogether, so overall privacy should increase and improve.

Privacy focused people don't use any Facebook shit in the first place. So nothing's changing here.

many apps that come from the play store use trackers in their app to track users activity and preference. And social media apps are the worst, they use the data to serve personalized ads
