I wonder how many people actually use those links? My understanding was that they’re primarily a data collection tool for the social networks themselves. Having your code run on every website is extremely useful for ad targeting.
- newusertoday 3y agoanecdotally they are not used much. Sharing is different and does not involves using social network tools, they are just links to social media networks you need not use their trackers for that. Displaying fb/twitter likes is a different thing altogether and would require their trackers.
