How apps on Android share data with Facebook - even if you don't have a Facebook account

Media Bloodbath posted:

Google used to let you match the unique identifiers with your CRM database and use that for tailored ads and other shenanigans. Since this summer (about the time when they rebranded their DoubleClick Suite to Google Marketing Platform and Google As Manager) you can no longer export this to 3rd party tools - the identifier is no longer directly accessible.

if you use the Google Marketing Platform you can upload your CRM database, place triggers all over your website, ads and create custom and look-alike audiences.

A lot of marketeers are extremely stupid, but if you are a bit creative you can easily harvest a shitload of info of potential and existing customers. If you put some work in you can also narrow it down enough to be able to identify individuals.

Facebook is even easier to game. I'm not up to date, but at least 2 years ago it was easy to circumvent their requirement of minimum size of custom audience > 15 by uploading 14 bogus e-mail addresses and the correct one of the person you want to gently caress with. This allowed you to serve this person (and only this one) with your ads. As it was only one person you could easily buy all ad inventory for a pittance.
