Apple plans to start rolling out its long-awaited App Tracking Transparency (ATT) framework on April 26.

Take away third-party cookies, and it can make an already-difficult situation seem impossible.

On March 3, Google published its position on user-level identifiers, and some likened it to dropping a bomb on the ad-tech community.
