Re: worse as Facebook

I would disagree. I deleted data on a. Google account, and it was actually deleted, there is no way to delete data one Facebook, only close an account. If you open a Facebook account years later, they magically know your connections from IP addresses they harvested years before.

Google have a comprehensive takeout system to gets your data anytime you wish, and offer proper deletion, and are safe in the knowledge that few will use it, as they offer ALOT in return, in exchange for a clear and concise data deal.

Facebook offer what exactly for their obscene levels of data harvesting? The ability to discover what your parents had for breakfast....
