I dont think that people are surprised that facebook or google sell the data but more at the amount and detail of not only collected data but also what conclusions are made based on that data.
They will even put you in a political orientation box, based on your online behaviour, even though you dont have one. They will estimate your choices and preferences on any given matter, based on what others with a similar behaviour have
I was personally not ok with that.
I’m not okay with it either but I am not even remotely surprised that they harvest that amount of data. It’s why I deleted my account in like 2015 or 2016. The only way they make money is advertising and they can only do that by being more and more targeted. If you’re not paying for the product then you are the product.
10 years ago i might have agreed with that, but these days even when you pay for it you’re probably still getting harvested.
Sure, but you have a better chance of not being the product if you’re paying from a service that’s not from one of the biggest companies.
