[QUOTE="desiibond, post: 2499551, member: 23023"] Drop this act of 'hey, listen to Saint Rootyme as I share looooooooong post of wisdom without understanding the discussion'. Who is calling Apple saints or did I mention that I trust Apple eyes closed? That article was a clickbait and written in a way to create FUD. Next time you jump into a discussion, spend some time to understand what we are discussing. Stop assuming things. OP still does not understand the difference between selling data and sharing data with authorities. Looks like you too do not. Each person is an object here. Graph databases are very good in creating relations and links between objects. Unlike traditional SQL DBs, these are very very good in establishing relations and links between objects. See this video for example. If you take me for example, company would have developed massive data and attach all those properties and then link with other people who have their own properties. I can then run queries to find people with same behaviour pattern or those who are related or from same location having similar interests. [MEDIA=youtube]REVkXVxvMQE[/MEDIA] While other steps taken does help with reducing getting your behaviour mapped, not storing contacts does not help at all in today's world.
