1. What are the major concerns about sharing private data with companies like Google,
Facebook and Amazon?
Answers
Answer:
Explanation:
Amazon's Ring security shares your personal data with Facebook and Google, report says. ... A report surfaced Monday suggesting that the Amazon-owned company shares tons of users' personal information with lots of different sources including Facebook, even if you don't have a Facebook account.
The two companies, to varying degrees, both collect massive amounts of data on the people who use their services, and yet they've largely avoided the public scrutiny falling on Facebook in the wake of the 2016 U.S. presidential election. It's time that changes.
To be clear, Google and Amazon are not Facebook. The data they collect is not unavoidably another Cambridge Analytica in the making. But just as Russian trolls' use of Facebook to influence the election was simply an application of the company's stated business model, so too are Google and Amazon's massive repositories of information on Americans at risk for exploitation by someone just taking advantage of what's being offered.
