That’s theme of the FTC’s questioning of Meta’s CRO. The FTC’s Stephen Pearson is asking about what Meta says it collects in its privacy policy, and points out that if Instagram were independent, it would have its own policy. Meta uses this data to fuel personalized advertising, which makes money for the company. Pearson is also beginning to touch on ad load — or the relative amount of ads to organic posts users see in their feed — which the FTC has tried to show Meta can increase with relatively little risk of losing users.
