#Meta ha introdotto la funzione #Linkhistory nell'app mobile di #Facebook

Si tratta di una funzione che conserva i link di siti esterni a cui si è acceduto dall'app

Presentato come un modo per ritrovare facilmente "visite" a siti esterni, serve a #Meta per raccogliere più dati per la profilazione utenti. Non a caso è una funzione opt-out.

Apparently, it will “improve your ads.” In #SBBlogwatch, we eschew techbro doublespeke. At @TechstrongGroup’s @SecurityBlvd: https://securityboulevard.com/2024/01/facebook-privacy-link-history-richixbw/?utm_source=richisoc&utm_medium=social&utm_content=richisoc&utm_campaign=richisoc
