Good post, The collection of personal data and what companies do with it is back in the spotlight. In an effort to be transparent with the data that companies collect from users, Apple has made a number of changes to its App Store and is now forcing app developers to easily show what data they collect from users.
Mark Zuckerberg's social network is one of the apps that collects the most data. Facebook uses it to track users on apps and websites owned by other companies. For example, for third-party advertising, it collects contact data such as physical address, email address, name or phone number.
Tha case of facebook is very controversial and that's why i don't use facebook that much like before. Thank you for your comment.
Very informative and enlightening piece. Thank you
