It has been known for a long time that social media deeply penetrates our privacy. From time to time, many publications warn us about the dangers of social media. We are reminded to be careful about what, when and how to post on our profiles. Signal messenger, which is becoming more and more popular, has created a controversial campaign. A strong one, but one that aims to reach Internet users. Its purpose is to make you realize how much data Facebook collects about us. 

Facebook - how much data does Facebook download about users?

The Forbes material that came to light some time ago shocked the world. It presents a record of how much data individual messengers collect about us. Message is the best in this ranking. Facebook and Messenger are the worst. Does this surprise anyone? Certainly not anymore! Signal created a special targeted ad on Facebook, which included, among other things, the following content.

“You are seeing this ad because you are a K-pop loving chemical engineer. This ad uses your location and is shown while you are in Berlin. In addition, you recently had a baby and you have just moved. You've been practicing a lot with programs for pregnant women lately. "

How did Signal have access to the private data of Facebook users? How did this data combine?

What was the reaction of the portal management?

Facebook banned Signal's campaign. It disappeared from the portal very quickly. Signal made an appropriate comment:

Facebook is very eager to sell information about users' lives, unless the buyer intends to use it to inform people about how the data is being used. Showing how Facebook's advertising system works is clearly enough to get banned. "

In a word of summary. We encourage you to be cautious and prudent with regard to the content and materials we publish - both on Facebook and Instagram. These portals should primarily be used for entertainment. Anyway, that was their initial assumption.
