Whatever data you think is being collected by TikTok/FB/Twit is actually being harvested for data brokers and being sold to anyone+everyone who wants to pay.
Why could the CCCP do some complicated dance with social media companies to get spotty personal data, when they can easily buy comprehensive personal data on the unregulated market?
- Zetice 3y agoIf you're the CCCP, I think you do both, especially if Americans will just install the malware for you, doubly especially if they'll actively fight their own government when it tries to warn them about the risks.
- WarOnPrivacy 3y agoThat doesn't seem to be nearly the risk as what we have now - US data brokers providing unfettered access to personal data.
- Zetice 3y agoIt's not really personal data if you consent to providing it, is it?
- WarOnPrivacy 3y agoNo, it is not. Public data are the details I post in a public forum. Everything else is best considered private and ought only to be distributed upon my clear, intentionally informed consent.
