Zs response was more to the tune that 'shadow profile' is not a term that he or Facebook uses to describe the said concept, and not denying that it may collect some data pertaining to non members.
- rhizome 9y agoIf so, that's a pretty legalistic interpretation of the question.
- dragonwriter 9y agoNo, the question was a follow-up after he explicitly acknowledged gathering non-user data; the question about that non-user data was “So these are called shadow profiles, is that what they’ve been referred to by some?” It was literally a question about whether that term was commonly applied to the data Zuckerberg had already acknowledged FB was gathering. Answering “I'm not familiar with that” because you aren't aware of the use of the isn't “pretty legalistic”, it's the only kind of answer that makes sense.
