Archetype Posted January 4, 2023 Share Posted January 4, 2023 It’s not the Meta ad model, it’s the internet ad model. When you use Google search, you don’t consent to personalized ad targeting. When you use ATRL, you don’t consent to personalized ad targeting. When you watch videos on YT or TikTok, you don’t consent to personalized ad targeting. Just bake stricter and more literal requirements into GDRP and then give tech companies X amount of time to reach compliance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Meta wanted to make it a required thing, and that's just nasty. Meta always takes it a step too high, and I get the biggest ick. Makes you reflect on how expensive our data must be if Meta is so desperate for it. Edited January 4, 2023 by Sombre Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My point is that they’re doing nothing the other large companies aren’t. Google is actually the absolute worst, because they disable useful features in Maps and YouTube if you don’t enable advanced ad tracking across their products.

Well the good thing is that once a precedent is there they can apply the same rules to everyone else. European internet privacy laws are very good and I believe GDPR/ Right to be forgagatten started with EU targeting Google's practices. So it's not like everyone else just gets different treatment than Facebook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letemtalk Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Social media companies want to operate on a global basis, but also want to be immune from national and regional laws. I'm glad the precedent has been set and Ireland has shown everyone that they're not above the law. No one should think that facebook/meta are the good guys now, because Elon twitter bad. They are all quite bad really, and meta has been one of the worst. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
