Well it seems the EU will not allow US (or any other) companies to simply do what they want within the EU. If the US regulators took a strong stance then lots of the problems visible today would not have occurred. Facebook has too much user data on its hands and wants to monetise it as best as it can.
Facebook had made it’s intentions clear a while ago that they wanted to overtake Tinder, and since they already have unrestricted access to our data they decided to play Cupid but were halted by the EU as they failed to provide the necessary privacy related information. After this debacle Facebook has responded by saying that they’re not obliged to inform the authorities about the launch, and on top of that now they’re claiming that they intentionally delayed the launch to make it more perfect (Lies and more Lies). I don’t know about you’ll but every-time I open Facebook I don’t want to be seeing people whom I should consider dating, I’m already tired of seeing the people I don’t know in the friends you may know feature. What do you’ll think of this will you be okay with Facebook playing Cupid for you’ll?, or you’ll yet prefer swiping on Tinder?.
