Mark Zuckerberg Says Facebook Collects Internet Data on Non-Users

Is this weird to anyone? Why is Facebook getting all the heat? Google, Apple, everyone does it..

So do literally millions of other companies. Your face (and mine) are stored for weeks&#x2F;months, maybe even years, on CCTV systems globally without consent, documenting where you&#x27;ve been, what you&#x27;ve done, who you&#x27;re with etc. Your phone does the same.<p>We went down the rabbit hole a very long time ago, why is it only now that people are starting to realise what it means?

&gt;“In general we collect data on people who are not signed up for Facebook for security purposes,” Zuckerberg said Wednesday in a hearing about the social network’s privacy practices in Washington before the House Energy and Commerce Committee.&quot;<p>It was extremely unfortunate that he wasn&#x27;t subsequently asked exactly <i>how</i> collecting data on non-FB users related to security. It&#x27;s baffling how that could go unasked.<p>Of course this was just another &quot;prepared&quot; response, but can anyone say how the rest of this contrived response goes? How does keeping data on non-FB users relate to security?
