    They do point out they won’t use your personal info in ads if you pay, by choosing the free option you consent for personalized ads

      Doesn’t mean they won’t collect your info anyways. What has Meta done to prove that they are worthy of our trust? Nothing.

        It pretty much makes it clear that they are absolutely going to continue collecting your data – they just won’t use it for ads. They wouldn’t have needed to specify that otherwise.

          They won’t use it to personalise their ads, they’ll just sell it to their approved data vendors who all happen to be in the business of personalized ads.

          This is paying to not think about a problem, not to solve the problem.
