1. Google/Facebook try a lot of underhanded things to triangulate more information about you (for e.g. with sleazy tactics such as inference based on your friends' data even after you have left FB) 2. The very notion of a lookalike audience (and its unfortunate popularity amongst the growth hacker types) is an immediate giveaway that FB/Goog are never going to take this tracking down even a single notch. 3. Google/Facebook actively encourage you to be always signed in to their networks 4. Google Analytics has more or less ensured that they see a BIG portion of what you do. Besides, just imagine a casual web user jumping from site to site. How many times are they going to land on a site which doesn't use Google Analytics? 5. Android is the dominant phone OS 6. Let us not even get into the infuriatingly patronizing attempt by Facebook to become an ISP in countries like India. Why didn't FB try to pull that stunt in a more developed country? Food for thought! This is a case where pretty much every company is in the wrong. >> People are missing the point on the bill, it isn't just horrible for privacy. However, the overall point you make is true.
