While “privacy and antitrust might seem like separate issues—two different chapters in a textbook about big tech. But the decline in Facebook’s privacy protections plays a central role in the states’ case.”

The government wants to break up the world’s biggest social network. Internal company emails show why. https://t.co/5g1QsW1jJx
No real consumer privacy protections with this deal... a generation of children’s data still surrendered. #techSTD #surrender2tech #youthprivacy #mkt350
Even as President Trump claimed victory with a deal for TikTok, it did not appear to deliver on some of his original promises. https://t.co/dW5mZehlA0
Good news for privacy from government bulk collection of consumer data... now what about privacy with the bulk and consistent corporate collection and sale of consumer data?

BREAKING: A federal appeals court just ruled that the NSA’s bulk collection of Americans’ phone records was illegal.
This ruling, which confirms what we have always known, is a victory for our privacy rights.
Wake up tech industry. Profiting from ad revenue while ignoring potential harms to consumers & society is greedy. Social responsibility is a long-term investment. Protecting consumers can and should encourage trust. #surrender2tech #security #privacy https://t.co/dlgHDVhP07
Facebook asked its researchers how to combat the polarization on its platform. Top executives didn’t like all the answers. https://t.co/tNzEpbu2jB
Continuous Partial Attention exemplified in video conferencing applications. Too much, too little, and forcing individuals to surrender to technology and provide gobs of data leading to unknown (potentially harmful) long term consequences. #mkt350 #surrender2tech #techSTD
A surge of video calls during the pandemic highlights something that’s always been true: virtual interactions can be extremely hard on the brain https://t.co/Cj8IlfuZZV
Contact tracing for the infodemic pandemic or just more evidence of tech socially transmitted data? Either way this will show the viral load of techSTD for FB users. Good example of privacy-security tradeoffs during this crisis #mkt350.

Facebook says it will start telling people when they've interacted with posts about bogus cures, hoaxes and other false claims about the coronavirus.

A ‘bracelet of silence’ as digital armor... what’s next in privacy innovation? #mkt350 #surrender2tech #techSTD https://t.co/H0DBVluxen
Consumers are surrendering data and spreading it like a virus. The Ring app is only one example of technology STD (socially transmitted data)... #mkt350 #surrender2tech
The Ring app is “packed with third-party trackers” sending info to Facebook and various marketing companies, according to a new @EFF study. https://t.co/MFAWUm58iz
Directly relates to class topics of socially transmitted data and connected devices #mkt350! #surrender2tech
Ever see an ad on a billboard that seemed a little too specific to your interests? It's no coincidence. By tracking your phone, some companies are showing targeted ads in public, the same way ads are tailored to you online. My latest for @ConsumerReports https://t.co/qGTQiKzhQK
YouTube as a ‘bad guy’? As Eilish would say... duh. Caught violating COPPA by bragging in meetings with products/brands that YouTube a top destination for kids and collecting children’s personal info - fined $170 million. #mkt350 #surrender2tech #privacy

Will what we don’t ‘sea’, hurt us? Data exchanges under the sea facilitated by fiber-optics enable the reality that, “99 percent of international telecommunications is submarine.” #mkt350 #surrender2tech
When Google's new fiber-optic cable goes live next year, the company estimates it will transmit around 250 terabits per second, fast enough to zap all the contents of the Library of Congress from Virginia to France three times every second. https://t.co/dLqzIz755c
Seem similar to your privacy policy analysis assignment #mkt350?Socially transmitting (extremely) personal information to a network of apps...but so helpful and convenient consumers may not recognize the long term risk(s). #techSTD #surrender2tech
Period-Tracking Apps Are Monetizing Women’s Extremely Personal Data https://t.co/ppnPVrZkYP
YEP. Here’s the @OviaHealth Fertility app with 13 trackers embedded, inc Google Ads, Google Doubleclick, Flurry, Facebook Analytics
No mention of tracking on the app landing page.
Apple brags about privacy then facepalms over FaceTime problems. How can we avoid surrendering personal info through technology? #mkt350 #surrender2tech #techSTD
Apple has made the group chat function in FaceTime unavailable after iPhone users said there was a bug allowing callers to activate another user's microphone remotely. Apple says a fix is coming later this week. https://t.co/ig8k1tC3vK
Tech giants lobby to avoid govt regulation and invade user privacy... but they now claim they had no idea data hoarding would be a problem? #mkt350 #techSTD #surrender2tech
Nice breakdown of three key forms of data: tabular data, image data or unstructured data (which makes up the majority of the world’s data). Useful for your last paper #mkt350! #techSTD #surrender2tech
Five concepts you need to grasp to be literate in data

JUST IN: Marriott says its guest reservation system has been hacked, potentially exposing the personal information of approximately 500 million guests https://t.co/V6AeE3qvpp
Social media allows “free” exchanges of information (questionable quality of said information). So much data means we are surrendering the checks and balances of civility and humanity to socia media companies. Are they qualified to do this? #mkt350 #surrender2tech #techSTD
“Social media companies have created, allowed and enabled extremists to move their message from the margins to the mainstream,” said Jonathan A. Greenblatt, chief executive of the Anti-Defamation League. https://t.co/PvSoZXSOgt
No matter what you call it, data-protection or privacy, the struggle is the same: very few are paying attention to details that matter. We are succumbing to convenience over choice and surrendering our personal info to technology. #techSTD #surrender2tech #privacy #mkt350
Verification matters: “Blockchain technology can track which digital identifiers are associated with the viewing of an ad, but it cannot help with verifying humanness or the honesty of a buyer’s intentions.” #mkt350 #350mkt #surrender2tech
Offline verification is one problem blockchain can’t solve

Tech companies finally addressing deception... and getting nailed by the GOP for it. #surrender2tech #techSTD #mkt350 #350mkt
