Define "use the platform"
Do you know that almost every "share on Facebook" button on a random news article/blog post collects data from you, if you don't have strong privacy protection enabled? That means even if you have never registered a Facebook account, Facebook could gather your page view data and use that to show ads targeting you on another page.
Same thing here.
- jefftk 4y agoWe are talking about a new style of Facebook link that has built-in tracking parameters, so that when you click through to a page on Facebook it gets logged in connection with how you got there. If someone never visits Facebook, this new style of link does not affect them. I agree that Facebook also collects data in other ways, but this is entirely unrelated.

What a gibberish. Tell me, how will it technically do that? On what "another page"? On the same website - yes. So what? Each website can do that.
