I had turned targeted ads off, on Facebook and Instagram. I still got ads but they were not targeted based on my data. I could live with that
Today I got a popup requiring me to pick an option of either accepting targeted ads or pay the equivalent of €13/$14 for an addfree experience across all meta platforms.
Does anyone still even use Facebook? Aside from boomer parents? TikTok, not THAT’S a data mining platform!
For me, it’s the main means of communication both for family, friends, hobbies and even work!
