Using a panel of 709 volunteers who shared archives of their Facebook data, Consumer Reports found that a total of 186,892 companies sent data about them to the social network. On average, each participant in the study had their data sent to Facebook by 2,230 companies. That number varied significantly, with some panelists’ data listing over 7,000 companies providing their data.
Years ago, Facebook kept nagging about privacy settings and almost pushed users to turn off all tracking etc.
Now, my Facebook always says there is no recent activity, downloading all data from FB shows they seem to have nothing on me. So are they just lying about what they share with who?
This is just my opinion, but why would they tell you the truth? It’s not like you can find out they are lying.
Yeeeesssss
