Many sites offer these things for free without the need to track you around the internet. Facebook's business model breaks social expectations of privacy. They make a lot of money because they sell other people your data through ad targeting.
Facebook controls the barely tech literate crowd by offering an aol type experience.
These services are popular with the masses. No one cares that they give data to facebook so they can be sold more things and leave them poorer.
You end up paying facebook no direct money but you have less money and spent when you didn't need to.
- winternett 4y agoThe only time I fill out pop-up surveys is when I want to enter wildly inaccurate data bout myself. That time back when Facebutt forced everyone to use their government names (as if it was an authentic requirement) I was shocked at how many people caved into entering their full name. Companies are having a field day with all this data collection. I hope they get real karma for the deception.
