I'd be very surprised if these companies actually share the private data with each-other (or any external party for that matter). I worked at a FAANG and they take private data handling very seriously (you can't even access it internally without a very involved approval process and always partially).
- gabereiser 5y agoThey don’t share it directly with each other, it’s through data brokers. Oracle being the biggest (here in the states) along with Experian, equifax, etc. I’m not talking about platform specific data. I’m talking about browser history, cookies, transactional, and the like. I know for a fact that one FAANG uses your browsers history to run adtech against it to show you relevant ads related to a previous search. Just because you couldn’t access it, doesn’t mean someone else wasn’t.
- reaperducer 5y agoI'd be very surprised if these companies actually share the private data with each-other (or any external party for that matter). They share it with "trusted partners." Which means data brokers. It's like money laundering, but for information. Look for the word "partners" in the small text of anything you commit to from signing up for e-mail to installing software to buying a car.
