So?
Meta would even collect your sewage information if they could make a buck
NIST: I’ll sell that info for $1000
Sounds like a crap offer.
I understand the concern. Meta is not buying their data. Meta never pays in exchange for data.
Just ad space?
It sounds like the tax prep companies have been sending it, but the article makes no mention of Meta paying for such data. What led you to editorialize the title of your Blind post in such a way?
If you click on the link, The Verge article title says they are selling it to Meta.
Not for me, I'm seeing "Tax filing websites have been sending users’ financial information to Facebook"
H&R Block selling user data to other companies - I Shleep H&R Block selling user data to Meta - Go rebel
Privatizing the tax industry was a mistake
