Digital Privacy and Security have become a major concern over the past few years as the amount of data gathered by Big Tech companies like Facebook (Meta) and Google has only increased over time. Digital Privacy meaning can be interpreted in a lot of ways but it is basically protecting your online activity data that you don’t willingly share with social media apps. Digital Privacy management has become a huge challenge for social media users and privacy protection bodies across the world recently.
EU US data privacy framework is one such attempt to limit the amount of data collected by these big social media companies. This data is used to show you online ads or for the purpose of digital marketing as it is commonly referred to. This is in short surveillance of your online activity without your direct consent. Online privacy is compromised for the sake of online advertisement. This is why you see those creepy ads online and ask, “how do ads follow me online” or maybe “why do I keep seeing the same ads” the answer to this question is in this video.
In this video, I’ve explained how social media apps in general, and Facebook in particular track your online activity. And also how you can stop online tracking. Facebook tracking off Facebook activity does come off as a creepy thing to do. I’ll show you how you can turn Facebook tracking off. Managing cookies or web cookies is a crucial part of protecting your online data. This video will help you realize how far social media apps go in tracking your online behavior to personalize the ad experience for you.
Facebook tracking you is not cool because if a data breach happens at Facebook or your account gets compromised then a lot of sensitive data about you can go into the wrong hands. Apple recently came up with the idea to give its users more control over their online data by giving them an option to opt-out of Facebook tracking their behavior. Privacy on iPhone is surely a lot better now but if you are using Android or Chrome then your sensitive data is still open for apps like Facebook to gather.
Please share this video as much as you can so it spreads awareness about data privacy and helps others protect their online data.
