> Dylan McKay, who apparently owns an Android phone, reported that for the period between November 2016 and July 2017, his archives contained “the metadata of every cellular call I’ve ever made, including time and duration” and “metadata about every text message I’ve ever received or sent.”
> Facebook responded with a blog post " People are expressly asked if they want to give permission to upload their contacts from their phone—it’s explained right there in the apps when you get started,”
Here's right, fuckers should probably be more concerned about themselves, rather than expect a big corp to manage their culture.
Ian Davis
It's true, Facebook users are all dumb fuck as Zuckerberg already stated. They are the dumbest niggerbrain shit on the planet. They are too illiterate to read, too stupid to control themselves, and too subhuman to accept consequences of the very contracts they agree to follow. They are all dumb retarded subhuman niggerbrains, no matter how white their westcuck cumskin is, it won't change their nigger brains.
Luke Myers
you're a retard if you assume anything on an android phone is private
Hudson Peterson
He's right, what are people crying about? The Android permission manager isn't a skinner box with meaningless switches, neither is the ToS a useless fancy text. Normalfags are realising what they've gotten themselves into and are powerless to do something about it

>you signed the dotted line so I get to use and abuse you, goy Holy shit. This is the most Jewish response from a public figure I've seen in a while. They're also not discussing the shadow accounts that Facebook sets up in the background. They literally collect data on people who didn't consent to it and store it in their servers. So this is also an outright lie in many cases.

Hudson Bailey
While I agree that it's their fault for agreeing to it without even realizing what they're agreeing to, the flip side is Facebook and many other services essentially coerce the user to agreeing by basically making it mandatory to agree in order to use the service. It's essentially 0 respect for privacy and all about the $$$.

Everyone who knows how technology works have known about this and a lot of people spoke out about this. But normies at the time defended it by saying "everything requires permissions, you are being paranoid". It takes time before proof is there, so people never learn. It is like punishing a dog a year after it shat on the rug. They can't tell the two events are connected. They won't know what to do about it and they wont improve their behavior. Facebook got popular because it was an easy way to keep in touch with people you don't care about. Then suddenly people got guilt tripped into using it and then people started to get depressed over being abused by it. There is no abuse that can possibly make normies stop using facebook.

>a family member has an account >you don't have an account >family member posts photo of you and them >kikebook now knows you're somehow related to them >kikebook has your face and probably name >they often know hair/eye color, body type, gender, race, height, etc >they then try to connect it to a physical location down to home address >they look for emails, phone number, school, workplace >they look for other family members to spread the botnet further The example person they collect this information on doesn't have an account. They don't even have to know someone who has an account. You can be walking down the street behind some thot taking a selfie and now they have your face.
Because the state propaganda networks are pushing it out, so now it's real. I had family members recently talk to me about it, and I told them that I had warned them of this like a year or two ago, and multiple times. They didn't listen to me, the lowly IT guy, because I'm only good for reinstalling Windows when they have too many toolbars from PornHub. Nobody listens to my common sense advice, even though I make more money than most of them, dress nicer, and have a higher level of education than many. The normies have an addiction to social media. They'll be upset about it for a few weeks, then they'll go back to using it as usual.

Someone should make a program that generates useless shit data which gets mixed into the usual info Facebook, Google, etc collects, making the whole data collection idea useless and we're free again.

Cell companies decide what comes installed, not you. You simply agree to the terms when you make the decision to buy their product
Joseph Long
This is exactly why people are so fucking stupid thinking facebook will go away
even if regulations are enacted, facebook has become a fucking utility - a communications utility on the same level as the tellephone when bell invented it all those years ago
buy the stock while it's cheap, and continue betting on the platform. yes, it's botnet. yes, it's fucking retarded. but so are people. it's not going away.
>essentially coerce the user to agreeing by basically making it mandatory to agree in order to use the service It's a free service. Obviously they want something in return. Did people forget we worship capitalism and not communism

Granular app permissions, firewalls and ad blockers is just a start for Android. And how many versions of iOS do you have to be behind for jailbreaking to actually work?
Kayden Morales
None of this should have been a surprise since 2013. The end.
But that's a fucking lie. I never accepted to upload my contacts to Facebook, yet they still recorded my call history. In fact, the app only stopped recording it when I forbade the app to connect to the Internet in the background.

> Android permission manager does anything noticeable That's not how it works sonny boy, the facebook app doesn't automagically bypass the Android framework. You literally cannot access the messages content provider unless you leak off of another insecure app or find a new exploit.
This, even if it's not technically their fault, it's an important matter and it was done with obvious malicious intent since they also manipulated the permission system, they asked for a bunch of permission at once which hid their intent, now that is somewhat fixed.
This, I have no private info on my fb and no leaks in my archive. I gave facebook all permission but I guess this is a murican thing ?

I thought people agreed to this because they were nihilistic and didn't mind trading their personal iformations for the conveniance of playing farmville and posting photos. Turns out, they were simply too retarded to understand wtf is going on.
>They literally collect data on people who didn't consent to it and store it in their servers But they do, this is what the tos is for. It's basically this
By using facebook you agree to us having all of your data and changing terms of service when we feel like it. [x] ok sure, pls create my acount [ ] pls no, i changed my mind and don't want an acount
