Deleting your account not simply enought. EU forces data privacy to all companies, but somehow forgot Facebook, Google and Twitters.
Quite .. Odd ?
Facebook users would have to pay to opt out of their data being used for ads

#12In the context of Facebook's tracking of non-users and logged out users being found illegal in Belgium, and potentially elsewhere in Europe, couldn't this legally be considered an extortion racket?

#13I wonder if it will be a bidding system. Like if you pay $15/mo then that is used to win the ad bidding process and keep your data safe from ad bids less than $1. However, if someone is bidding $5 per ad spot, then it over comes your ad buffer and you see it. In a way, everyone loses and facebook makes way more money by weponizing their concerned users who have enough cash to pay for puedo privacy.
Nobody is going to spend time each month thinking about how much money they should bid to keep their data away from advertisers, to make people pay for something, make them think less about the purchase.
I think the people that would have been willing to spend money on FB to protect their information from advertisers have already left, and are not going back.

#14They would still be collecting it for when you decide to stop paying for your subscription...
