Collecting the data is necessary for the functionality of the site. Lemmy collects that same data. Sharing that data with third parties and potential ramifications of that is the issue I’m raising.
And that data is still being shared with advertising firms. It is just that instead of “Jack Smith is User 12345” it is “User 12345 who is probably someone named ‘Jack Smith’”
Facebook does the same shit.
