Activitatea în afara Facebook

Facebook a lansat din anul 2019 instrumentul său de activitate Off-Facebook, care intenționează să ofere utilizatorilor mai mult control asupra modului în care datele lor sunt partajate de alte site-uri web și aplicații cu gigantul social media.

Facebook spune că aceste date sunt folosite pentru a „personaliza experiența dvs., cum ar fi afișarea de reclame relevante”, dar, deoarece sunt supuse unui control crescut asupra modului în care gestionează confidențialitatea utilizatorilor, au fost ridicate întrebări și despre această urmărire „off-Facebook”.
