Guess what, these companies are not very popular among Bitcoiners either. (I'd order it in descending popularity: Google, Microsoft, Apple.)
However the big difference between FB and these companies is that FB is a single service which only purpose is to share (pointless) information, while the other companies offer a variety of products and services. All value of FB derives from information about its users - that's not true for Google, Microsoft, or Apple. So collecting these data is an integral part of FB.
You can still use products from Google, Microsoft, or Apple and safeguard your privacy if you take the appropriate precautions. Trying to do that for FB makes using their "service" pretty absurd.
Of course you can still use a computer without ever being involved with these companies... but that seems to be beyond your imagination...
ya.ya.yo!
FB sole purpose is not to share pointless information, it is to connect people to other people.(Yes I realize they share tons of information, but then don't put so much information on Facebook)
Facebook knows next to nothing about me, it is extremely easy to create an account just like you would for Google that is not a real account, or a fake name(or it used to be I haven't tried forever) As a matter of Fact Apple is probably the hardest to create a fake apple ID and they want just as much information if not more.
I am well aware you can use a computer without using any of these, but thank you for trying to take a cheap shot at me. For the majority of users on here, I am willing to bet around 80% are using MAC/WINDOWS at the very least. Which means they are using some of the technologies.
