The logic here is that Google will never send/sell your data to third parties ?
How do you think Facebook et al gets a hold of your google data ? How do you think companies like Cambridge Analytica thrive ?
I am genuinely curious to know what your view of the world on these topics is and why are you so insistently (and apparently naively) defending google in this regard.
- hajxg 7y agoI said Firefox is bad at protecting my privacy. Someone compared Mozilla to Google, so I said that even Google is better. In other words I'm not defending Google, I'm saying Mozilla is even worse. I despise Google, too. What's your proof that Google gives your data to Facebook? That doesn't sound right. On the other hand, I showed proof that Mozilla gives your personal data (list of URLs you visit, no less!) to a third party.
- headsoup 7y agoAre you hoping people don't read the article you linked or do you not understand the approach Mozilla used? The data is not used to identify the user by building a profile and the source IP is removed on collection. Now of course there's a level of trust required in them doing what they say, but this is nowhere near Google et al's levels of data hoarding and reselling anyway.
