It’s no secret that Apple will begin enforcing its AppTrackingTransparency framework soon, chipping away a decade of targeting practices and technologies.

SKAdNetwork (sometimes referred to as SKAN) was introduced to the public officially in 2018, though only available to limited partners as Apple tested the waters.
