Facebook criticizes Apple’s iOS privacy changes with full-page newspaper ads
I know my comment will get downvoted.<p>But there's a lot of misconception about Facebook, and the other counter-arguments are worth mentioning too.<p>Facebook does not sell our data, in fact, they keep it very secure. Facebook merely allows advertisers to target you based on your interests (which it learns from your activities).<p>Advertisers cannot identify anyone, they just select categories for which they want their ad shown to (example categories might be: Between 18 and 25, into IT, servers, hacking, living in Vancouver > Show ad for Vancouver Hacking Conference).<p>I don't see anything immoral about this. I remember when ads were flashing red/blue and said "You won $1M, click here to claim your prize". If I must be shown ads, I prefer ads that are relevant to my interests.
