ACLU says it shares user data with Facebook, a frequent target of criticism

  > The ACLU, meanwhile, told Axios that it "often works with companies that we are actively challenging to improve their own policies and practices," noting that it banks with JP Morgan Chase That's fine, they can do that with _their own_ data. Or is this another "your data is our data" thing? And the complaint has nothing to do with where they're banking. Why did they think it'd even be a good idea to bring this up? This seems really two-faced.

    Here's the change. I don't think it's their own data. It sounds like they want to do something like retargeting. I'm not sure how I feel about that. It depends on what sort of data they share. > To enable us to provide the most relevant information on our activities, we may share your personal information with communications platforms, such as Facebook and Mother Jones, including to deliver our content to you or to identify other people who may enjoy our content.

  This is about as tone-deaf as I have encountered from them. How could they imagine this would be acceptable behavior?

    Think of ACLU as having been bought by the tribal outrage media for their reputation assets.
