> The social network allowed Microsoft’s Bing search engine to see the names of virtually all Facebook users’ friends without consent, the records show, and gave Netflix and Spotify the ability to read Facebook users’ private messages.
> The social network permitted Amazon to obtain users’ names and contact information through their friends, and it let Yahoo view streams of friends’ posts as recently as this summer, despite public statements that it had stopped that type of sharing years earlier.
The records the New York Times reviewed were "generated in 2017" and "some were still in effect this year." That means not only did these agreements cross through Facebook's representations to various governments, they also overlap with GDPR.
duckduckgo works really well. For some topics google is better, but for 95% ddg do the job as a day to day standard search engine. And those times you need google, it is very simple just to add !g bang to get the google search results. With ddg you get better privacy and dont end up in googles filter bubble. More should try it out.
