DOES FACEBOOK HAVE MORE OF YOUR DATA THAN THE NSA?

You know that your children happily uploaded ALL of their email addresses in the "see how many friends you can get" era? Facebook SAVED all info on user and nonuser alike. Facebook adds to your nonuser information in an attempt to help users "get more friends."

When Facebook had a bug (for about a year), Facebook gave out private information on nonusers, but failed to notify the nonusers as required by US law and a US consent decree.

Marketing companies compare and converge data bases all the time. But at least they work for the data and pay for the data. Facebook encourages people to just "share" all their most private information. Honestly, I do not care if you share how many times you get drunk. I do care that Facebook encourages you to share private information about ME, which they then sell to lazy marketing companies.

If I was really doing conspiracy theories, I would point out that, for many years, Facebook was funded by Russians.

At least the NSA gets warrants from a secret court.

Facebook believes that any data is their data.
