Does this statement make your hair stand on end? Unfortunately, the “nothing to hide” argument has persisted for far too long and often prevents any constructive discussion about privacy protection on the Internet. It’s high time to debunk it.

A very, very helpful article to help get people we fight with to understand why this is important for anyone and everyone. Send this to friends and family.

    Nope haha, just their Facebook app on their mobile phones is needed to grab all the data. And once logged in, Facebook will actually track the user’s phone usage and their Internet usage as data without the user knowing. To add to their pile to analyze the user.

    This also includes Instagram and Whatsapp. Meta’s other products.

    Not participating in any of their products so your data is not their raw resource is good, keep it that way.
