> I find it questionable that a government agency should be collecting analytics on its visitors in the first place
I don't agree with them using known abusers of personal data for the tooling, but this is what I was talking about.
I don't like them using Facebook for analytics, I don't know what they were getting from it. But the basic premise of analytics, I think they should do.
Sure, but the answer they gave to this reporter was the same usual corporate garbage response that included "we need analytics to market our products" (???)
I think it's fucked up that any agency is "marketing products" at all, but inasmuch as this is necessary in some way, surely they don't need the kind of surveillance marketing that's questionably even worth it for corporate advertisers to use. It literally reads like a google or facebook lawyer wrote it
