- berkes 5y agoEven if you can keep using it without such an account, it is another datasource for Facebook. Another way to track you in your daily use of tech.
- evad3r 5y agoI wouldn't see them enforcing needing a Facebook account, in the same way that you don't need a Facebook account to use Messenger, Instagram or WhatsApp. That's almost worse in a way.
- isoskeles 5y agoI believe they’re just going to log your IP and sell that data to other companies. If someone posts a gif from Giphy in my Slack workspace, FB could sell my IP and Slack metadata to anyone else, and then I probably start seeing ads (if I’m not using uBlock for some reason) for B2B stuff related to my job. Maybe if a gif gets posted to “#engineering” they show me Software Engineer job ads.
