This is a pretty bad article imo. I don't trust Facebook with anything and they make a fair point that they are not monetizing the service which probably means they are collecting data from it to use in some way that is not yet clear for the general population.
But this is basically what Facebook already does, so if you already have a Facebook account and trust Facebook with that data I don't see a reason to trust them further.

- mscasts 7y agoYes but I don't think most people care about being advertised to like that. That is why they keep using Facebook. You don't have to convince me, I deleted my account years ago.
