Targeting and profiling. Reselling the data.
- _heimdall 2y agoMaybe I'm wrong, but that feels pretty similar to fingerprinting. Usually that's why online services try to fingerprint you, for advertising and data revenue.

- DevKoala 2y agoThat is what the fingerprinting is for.
- YetAnotherNick 2y agoFingerprinting is just for identifying user, not getting user data. You can potentially resell things like app usage to credit rating company.
- DevKoala 2y agoThat is profiling. Fingerprinting is an identification mechanism. It is most commonly used for targeting and profiling.
- hattmall 2y agoDoes fingerprinting necessarily imply reselling that data?
