Facebook: Quite a Slippery Fish
February 1, 2019
Apple nuked Facebook. Finally, a company took action, which seems to have been overdue because of the endless, “Gee, we’re sorry” statements.
I noted an article in TNW called “A Handy List of Ways Facebook Has Tried to Sneakily Gather Data about You.” Most people know about young kids who spend money via their parents’ credit card and carrying the moniker “whales.” But there is a useful list to remind me why our Tess the Dog Facebook page receives so many friend requests. Tess died in 2016, but people still want her to be their pal.
Perhaps someone in a US regulatory agency will print out a copy of the TNW article and, maybe, think about its information.
