Facebook has already been rolling out updates to ad targeting in anticipation of the iOS 14 update. These roll outs, which started in the middle of January, have caused a few problems in the ad system, including a momentary loss of ad data for several hours.
Facebook will likely continue to roll out more updates as the ad system adjusts to iOS14.
