IS FACEBOOK FREE ? HOW DO FACEBOOK MAKES MONEY ?

in #life7 years ago (edited)

Look around you.This is the  FREE internet .We do everything here .We connect with friends on facebook,we search for information on Google,we use Wattsap to call our family,and all for FREE .

So how do this websites make money ?

The truth is , this services aren't FREE at all ,you pay for them with your own identity .When you use Facebook , Google ,they log everything you do;The pages you like , the people you connect to , the information you search,even the words in your status update .Then they take that information , analyze it , and assemble a detailed profile of how you are .They know your habits , your preferences , they even know your sexual activity and orientation or risk tolerance .

And they sell that information to advertisers , to 3rd party companies They can record how we act during an add , and partner with companies that track us in the real world , so they can know what add they use to fill our browser add space .

And google is worst .

Every time you write a gmail , you watch a video on YouTube , search for info in google ,use google maps , google collects data about you .

And they are making billions .We are not the buyers , we are THE PRODUCT .THEY ARE MONETIZING US .


And the worst part is that is our fault .When the web was young , we decided we rather have free stuff , than paying for their services .They had to sell us adds , so they can keep the sites running ;that means we are watched 24/7 .


Did you know that 1 in 6 people on earth has a Facebook profile ?


Do you know how much you are worth to Facebook ?


Just 12 dollars ..
