App Stores need to track the user to determine if the user has installed the website app before.
The EU demanded Apple allow third party stores and if Apple didn't implement these with the same feature set available to Apples store, the complaints would be focused there instead.
There are people who like to pick on Apple and most of them are technologically illiterates. This was true long before Apple become insanely profitable with the iPhone. It will continue to be true for the foreseeable future.
Haters need to hate. Apple haters are a distinct fetish.
Apple claims to invest billions upon billions in R&D and you say they can't develop a private way to ping the users. But the reality is that it's just intentional failings on Apple part, so that they can continue to falsely claim regulations hurt privacy and security. If you read the full article and not just the headline, you would know that Apple doesn't even bother to check the site origin or validate JWTs. That is not a mistake someone with years of experience would make, it's intentional moves to make it less secure.
