Whats privacy got to do with it?Uninstalling that garbage is free

If you believe Facebook will stop abusing your privacy if you pay them, I have a bridge to sell you…
Why is that a phrase? People do occasionally sell bridges.
Thanks
Is it a private bridge?
Is it a nice bridge?
“privacy”
There’s no fucking way. They’ll take your $10 and still sell all your shit.
Privacy? What is this article talking about. Ads not displaying in no way implies privacy. They will harvest your data as much as it possibly can either way. All you are doing by paying to remove ads is directly funding the ad business model.
What annoys me most about that kind of logic is that the reverse could also be true - they could potentially run ads like on TV without directly profiling users or violating privacy. But by marrying the concept of ads and tracking, they can play the “but we need to pay for our services somehow” card.
Exactly this!
The article confuses privacy and ads-free. As in, you pay $10 a month not to see what the data they collect on you would be used for if you didn’t pay. But they still collect data on you and monetize it in many other ways.
Well, getting an extra 10$ each month sounds nice but it’s really not remotely enough to make me use Facebook.
Here’s a tip that costs less than $10/month - if you want privacy, just don’t go on Facebook!
T’ain’t enough. Gotta block everything they do, everywhere on the internet.
As someone so eloquently put it: you might not have a facebook profile, but facebook has a you profile.
If you’ve ever seen a “share on facebook” button on another website, they’ve been watching you.
They just need a non-sketchy way to ask you for a donation
