Not for nothing, but Facebook and Google tracking practices are a moot point in the United States. Since 2017, it's been legal for ISPs to sell browsing data in the U.S. (other developed countries rightly prohibit that), so all of their browsing privacy is gone even before they ever get picked up by a Google or Facebook tracking pixel.

Where's a NordVPN ad when you need it?

Yes, very true but the arguments I had were specific to Google and Facebook’s practices and that wasn’t within the scope of the conversations. That’s a really good point to bring up though.
