They force all users to clearly consent to their terms, which is why they are GDPR clear.
- mpweiher 8y agoHuh? Forcing consent absolutely does not make it OK.
- cm2012 8y agoGDPR says explicit consent is enough for data tracking. FB gives a really clearly written prompt on, "By using FB I...". Pretty sure they are compliant, regardless of your moral judgments.
- icebraining 8y agoGDPR says consent must be freely given, that is, that you can't deny access to services or content based on it - see Recital 43. The philosophy behind the GDPR is that personal data shouldn't be used as payment.
- mpweiher 8y agoNothing to do with "moral" judgements, it's simply not in compliance with the law. Just like many US companies think they can enforce things by click-through license agreements. Those are simply not legal/enforceable in Germany.
