I don’t think facebook shares much data to other companies, they have more to gain by keeping it to themselves and having all the data to serve their billions of users personnalized ads. Basically the same as Google, they don’t really sell your data. For these companies I never really liked the phrase that says you are the product, youre not really the product, you are what makes their product. If a company sold your data plainly, then yes in thsi case you are the product
Is this Facebook?
It’s Outlook trying to be like Facebook
I guess I appreciate that there’s a “reject all” button and it’s not grayed out… Not sure if it’s because they were required to not hide it, though.
The only reason they’re even asking is because they’re required to.
I’m just surprised it’s not obscured by a dark pattern (making the opt-out button “less eye-catching” to paraphrase a different article)
