Tech Field Day News Rundown

Facebook Doesn't Know Where Your Data Goes | Gestalt IT Rundown: April 27, 2022


Listen Later

Vice got their hands on a leaked memo from Facebook that sheds light on some troubling privacy issues on the platform. Per the memo, Facebook is worried about the growing number of user privacy regulations around the world because the company cannot say where the user data they collect goes exactly or what the companies that collect it are doing with it. Facebook admits the problem is that the systems have open borders and very little regulation. It's like pouring ink into a lake and trying to get the ink back into the bottle. The memo comes from the Facebook Ad and Business Product team privacy group. They say they don't have adequate control and can't say that they can't confidently say that no one can use specific data for specific purposes, which runs counter to explicit regulations like GDPR and CCPA. This sounds like a nightmare scenario for privacy advocates. All this and more on this week's Rundown. For show notes, head to http://www.gestaltit.com/
