The problem with Meta (also russian Yandex) is that it was caught having web-side trackers that send stuff to localhost, where it gets caught by Meta apps and then sent to Zucker servers. This two-bit scheme was noticed by researchers and isn’t there anymore, but it is a clear display why having these apps preinstalled is a problem. Regular ads are better than Mark looking over your shoulder whenever his meta pixel triggers.
