True, but I think this is disingenuous on their part, as they don't need the IDFA since everyone using their services is logged in with an AppleID



Yup very much so. Apple uses a logged in ID to run attribution for their own ads business but requires other ad businesses to use a different ID (IDFA). Till now, these were functionally similar so no one objected.

If they change the rules for others but not themselves, they'll face anti trust cases in the courts.
