Facebook has trouble managing all the data it collects: Report says

According to Vice, it’s challenging to explain what happens to user data because of the social network’s open nature. Now the Facebook has trouble managing all the data it collects: Report says

According to Vice, Facebook’s ad systems have issues keeping up with the volume of user data they collect, and the social network’s privacy experts have issued a warning that it may encounter problems with authorities in the US, Europe, India, and other nations.

In a supposedly leaked paper from last year, the engineers said that the “open boundaries” of the system that Facebook parent corporation Meta has created are the problem.

Because of this, it can be challenging to reassure outside parties that data isn’t being used in ways that go beyond what laws like the EU’s General Data Protection Regulation, or GDPR, will permit.

Google’s earnings fell short of expectations.

In a response to CNET, Meta said that the paper lacked context for the data lake comparison and failed to disclose its “extensive processes and controls” to adhere to rules.

According to a company spokesperson who responded to requests for comment via email, “New privacy regulations across the globe introduce different requirements, and this document reflects the technical solutions we’re building to scale the current measures we have in place to manage data and meet our obligations.”
