Morally? No. But I think they'd fear the legal repercussions of high-level company officers making public statements that they aren't doing it. I also think one of the many privacy researchers doing traffic sniffing probably would have picked up on some signature pattern. Is it possible I'm wrong? Of course. But if I had to make a bet at this moment in time, that's how I'd bet.
- arthur_sav 5y agoI have a suspicion on how they're doing it. Every time this has happened there was a tv around. 1. Use smart TVs to listen for ad relevant keywords. 2. TV manufacturers sell the data to FB. 3. FB gets keywords & geolocation data, combines it with it's won data and voila. You know these 2 FB users where near this place and dog stuff was discussed. Pretty safe and distanced from a scandal and yet very effective.
