In recent days, there has been much discussion about passed legislation called the USA Freedom Act, a law that reportedly curbs some of the government’s power to task the National Security Agency to collect massive amounts of data on American citizens.
At this point, the law is still new and policy analysts are still dissecting it. What kind of data collection, and to what end, it will or will not permit the government to engage in remains to be seen.
However, there are a couple of mega-media companies that were unaffected by the law and will remain unaffected by it, yet they are collecting every bit as much, if not more, data on not just American citizens but users from around the globe.
Yes, world, Google and Facebook are as powerful data collectors as the United States’ foremost spy agency, and what’s more, their data collection is legal because, unwittingly or not, users of both give them permission to do so (was there really ever a time Google lived up to its motto of “Don’t be evil”?).
