Why don't companies care about privacy anymore? Last company I heard that implemented a real privacy measure for users was fucking Whatsapp, and that's just for messages themselves (they still collect when you message someone, for how long, et cetera).

I literally don't care if they collect aggregate statistics, but this is ridiculous. I don't want companies to build a profile on my personal habits.

Uh because they only care about profit, and selling personal information is one of the most popular business models currently. If you don't want them to build a profile, stop using "Free" services like Google, 4chan, reddit, facebook, etc.

If a service is "free" yet the company offering it is making money, ask yourself where that money is coming from.

Because people trade privacy for convenience, and companies take that privacy and make profit from it (which is to be expected, barely anyone makes a product/service thinking they won't make money out of it).

If people would pay for services instead of expecting everything for free there would be no need for the current model.

A thread died for this. Thanks.

Apple is the only thing left on the planet that doesn't need to profit from their user's data.

It's been a decade of frivolous anarchy in 00's, now it's time for some fascism.

Because it is directly against their best interests. Remember, companies don't care about YOUR interests.

I wonder why indeed

I think advertising is a bubble and companies will soon realize targeted advertising is a meme

They won't. They'll stay until the bubble burst and then try to revive it until it all goes to shit.
