What does something like this look like from the other side? Do users just agree to everything put in their face? The copy there sounds like it's a really convenient fun new thing.

The plans were available in the basement, behind the door that says “beware of the leopard.”
Nothing on that screen says they’re using your photos for training. I’m sure it’s in the linked terms, but Facebook knows those won’t be read.

You can use ADB (Android Debug Bridge) to disable pre-installed Facebook/Instagram apps without root via `pm disable-user` commands, effectively preventing them from running or collecting data.
which what, 0.5% of users will know and be able to do?
That number is way way way way way too high

Facebook has, though, historically been less than honest about consent I bet "agree to" is "we clicked the box for you anyway"
Oops, we totally didn't mean to, but an undiscovered bug did not obey the check box and slurped in everything anyways.
My KPIs? I don’t see what my new Lamborghini has to do with anything!

#26This is why I requested family not to post pictures of my children on Facebook. They will get to decide what to do with their likenesses when they're older. It seemed cruel to let Facebook train a model on them from the time they were babies until they first start using social media in earnest.
Since Facebook is pulling from the camera roll, not posting is not an adequate defense.
Only logical thing to do personally is to take it completely off your mobile devices. You still get caught in the dragnet if you have friends and family posting you.
Also in many places WhatsApp is practically a requirement for daily life which is frustrating. What I need is some kind of restricted app sandbox in which to place untrustworthy apps, they see a fake filesystem, fake system calls, etc.

Recent iOS versions have granular controls over library access to prevent this.

#28I wonder how many pieces of code at facebook there are with guards like if (userId == 1) { // don't add mark's data to training set }
Mark's user id is 4
