    I’m copying pasta from my previous reply on other post

    Once they can interact with your account, they can pull your data into their server and analyzing it to deliver ads campaign.

    Just look at this

    They can connect the point of interest based on their users interactions with other users on other instances. It doesn’t matter even if you don’t use their apps, they just need to connect the points.

    Whenever an account from Threads upvote/ downvote or reply to your comments/posts or vice versa, Meta will analyze that and they can sell ads based on your political leanings, gender, geo-location, hobbies, marital status etc.

    That’s the options from what I saw on fb ads dashboard years ago. If you’re from US, that options are broader and more detailed.









  • I can post any technology related outside of tech biz but mostly it’s not a popular thing here, many of articles are too technical, hardly any discussion, even worse there are articles that you won’t like it. For example, I can post the good thing about EVs today and another day I can post the downside of EVs battery to environment, and I get the heat.

    Posting in niche community? Not enough MAU, I’v tried in c/collapse, c/cybersecurity etc, no discussion.

    c/technology is just a mirror of r/technology
