The article is light on details about the exact allegation. I’d be very interested to hear exactly Facebook planned to store and use the data, what kind of data it was anyways, and how it could have improved their bottom line. If we can find how they are using this to make more money then maybe it’s possible to cut off the opportunity at the source.
