We gather everyone’s still easing themselves into the New Year. Deleting screens of unread emails, putting on a brave face in meetings, and slowly getting up to speed. While you’re recovering from the Christmas break, Meta has been busy introducing fresh ways to monetize your web surfing habits while dressing it up as a user experience improvement.
The latest attempt to extract more sellable data comes in the form of link history, which lists the webpages you’ve visited using the browser built into Meta’s apps. Link history stores records for 30 days, can be used to recall pages previously read, and excludes links sent in messages. This could be convenient, to be sure.
