Tech: Buzzfeed's strange approach to "privacy"

This screenshot is what you get when you go to Buzzfeed for the first time. “We value your privacy” can be read in two ways though:

  1. “we value your ability to manage your own personal information”
  2. “your privacy is worth money to us”

 

If you are requiring visitors to accept Personalisation, then you don’t value their privacy.

Because to personalise you need to a)  track people and then b) profile them.
