This is reliant on people continuing to use Facebook as their primary social networking tool.
- eva1984 10y agoWhat's done is done. Facebook won't delete your data, once U registered, give your gender/age, you are probably forever screwed, forever becoming a data point that waiting to be targeted.
- Maarten88 10y agoIn my environment (Netherlands) I'd say that WhatsApp is now the primary social networking tool for most people. I wonder how that is going to work out for Facebook.
- reycharles 10y agoFacebook bought Whatsapp two years ago.
- Certhas 10y agoFacebook owns WhatsApp. The question is what they are going to do with it. WhatsApp with end to end encryption seems to not allow for the type of monetization people are talking about here.
- Maarten88 10y agoThat's what I mean: how will they monetize it? They'll probably introduce business / bot accounts that they can monetize, but the encryption makes all sorts of monetization schemes hard - which is what I like about it.
- petra 10y agoMaybe it's possible to do ad-targeting on the client.
