RE: People Care About Data Privacy, and It's All Open Access on Steem... Uh Oh?
Nice topic.
When something is open to everyone people tend to care what they put out. I mean, how many mobile numbers are on steem, almost none, many accounts don't have any pictures and personal data around here. While fb spams you to put a mobile pphone number so many times, until you do, or you keep ignoring. :)
Yup, that can happen. Be careful what you put out ;) But you need a mobile to register a free account on Steemit ;)
ooooh, right - I forgot that one! (facepalm)
Another thing, regarding data on facebook - I think it is highly unlikely that someone will come and ask for krnel's info and stats. It's more likely they will use for statistical studies - and see if you fit in their target audience. However, on steemit and other frontends(at the moment) we don't have ads, so it is kind of a relief. :)
