Well now I'm very curious: what country are you in?
I'm in South East Asia (won't reveal more for privacy reasons). Facebook is really popular here.
That's concerning. Do people seem bothered by this?
No, no one cares. I'm the weird/paranoid one for being weary of data collection by tech companies.
WhatsApp is massive in Asia, except China. They have Wechat over there.
Not the person you're talking to but I'm in the UK and went back to uni as an adult in 2018. Literally had to install Messenger because it was the only thing the kids used, for the entire duration of our degree. Completely blew my mind!
