But it is not about what they can share, it is about what they or anyone can collect, store and use.
What you can share lets companies store and make decisions based on data they shouldn't have and couldn't share as long as their inputs and outputs look clean.
I,e. Facebook or Google could help you intentionally run a race biased campaign across all their assets as long as they don't tell you any specifics and include a little noise so you can't be sure of any one user's race. All thanks to what they can collect, use, but refuse to share.
- erikpukinskis 9y agoThis is a losing battle. The cost of rebuilding this kind of database, even from scratch, is only going to go down.
- stale2002 9y agoWhy do you think any of this data is private? They seem like they were doing reddit scraping/Facebook scraping. Nothing illegal about that.
