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

Which app is that in your screenshot, the app you're using to see Facebook tracking information?

but when you use Play Store and such tracking applications, you have already sold your privacy. how are unskippable ads making the situation worse?
