Facebook is only entitled to use data on us however it sees fit because we allow it to. There is no reason that a culture should not restrict such activities by law if they are detrimental.
Which is why I said "Do you have a right to use Facebook and Amazon without them tracking you? Maybe you should but right now you don't, at least not in the US."
It could change. But right now, you don't have that right. Facebook is not the government, and it owes you nothing.
Define "we". How many people are demanding Facebook change? What percentage of their userbase, and what percentage of their income? How much will Facebook stock decrease if they say "no"? The answer is none, as evidenced by the fact that this is the status quo.
Listen, I don't want to defend big corporations or their sleazy ways. What I'm saying is, no one is entitled to use Facebook. Thomas Jefferson didn't demand states recognize Google's privacy policy. Amazon isn't enshrined in the Magna Carta. So don't talk about sacrifice like you're losing a leg. No one is pointing a gun at you and demanding you post to Twitter.
This is a total straw man. The issue here is about tracking by advertisers seeking to discover personal details about you. Avoiding this is not simply a matter of just not using one product. It's pervasive across all major services on the internet.
Having a severely curtailed access to the internet is most definitely a sacrifice in modern life.
