It was clear this was coming and noyb always seems to be very well prepared for their cases. I'm curious about the outcome.
I'm happy that the GDPR already forced Facebook to offer a no-personalized-ads option, even though I don't really trust them that they don't keep collecting your data for when you cancel the subscription.
I think there's a difficult balance to strike, but paying for not violating your privacy is not. I wish them luck!
- jacooper 3y agoI hope a similar ruling comut out against google. I would pay for YouTube premium in a heartbeat if it meant they will stop tracking me and stalking my activity.
- ben_w 3y agoWith search engines, I get actual value from them knowing what I like — e.g. "mouse" should give me the peripheral not the mammal, and the default YouTube home page if I'm not logged in is 99% irrelevant (sports and music, I don't care about either). Advert tracking, and anything where they sell on this data, that's where their interests are no longer aligned with mine.
- jacooper 3y agoMaybe if I can trust them, which currently I have no basis to do so. And I don't use Google search anyway (brave search is really good), I just care about YouTube.
- robin_reala 3y agoThere’s nothing saying that they can’t track based on your preferences. But it needs to be opt-in, and the information processed to do that needs to be only used to do that (i.e. the consent is per functionality). The default is always no processing.
