It's effectively the same as cutting it off for third party apps. No small-time app developer has 20 million lying around.
They're trying to profit as much as possible from the AI companies that want to scrape user data, and throwing the baby out with the bathwater. Killing third party apps are just a nice side benefit as they can get more eyeballs on ads.
yea it's 100% basically the same thing. i hope they'll see that it won't go over too well with the community
