The title is misleading. This isn't about Big Tech. It's about Google specifically. Why not name them?

- JackWritesCode 7y agoIt applies to big tech. 1) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook%E2%80%93Cambridge_Analytica_data_scandal https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facebook%E2%80%93Cambridge_Ana... 2) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_data_breaches https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yahoo!_data_breaches etc.
- notacoward 7y agoYes, those things happened, but they're not relevant to this advertorial which is very clearly about Google Analytics. Facebook doesn't run Google Analytics. Yahoo doesn't run Google Analytics. Google does. It's just oh-so-convenient how people always name-and-shame every other company, but when Google is the culprit it's "big tech" in general.
- JackWritesCode 7y agoFair enough, point taken. We could've named Google in the title.
