Memo from Facebook VP Pedro Canahuati
Facebook je prosledio intreno pismo u kome, pored ostalog, pise:
This is part of a broader set of research programs we conduct. Asking users to allow us to collect data on their device usage is a highly efficient way of getting industry data from closed ecosystems, such as iOS and Android. We believe this is a valid method of market research.
Ne zna se sta je lepse i mudrije. Da li da je ovo samo deo programa koje sprovode, sto je vrlo logicno, ili to sto misle da je ovo vrlo normalan i legitiman nacin istrazivanja trzista.
Ovo je sve osim klasicnog istrazivanja trzista.
Gde se nalazi logika da nudite pare deci od 13 godina i racunate da je njihov roditelj potpisao pristanak da ucestvuju u ovom programu.
TechCrunch implied we hid the fact that this is by Facebook – we don’t. Participants have to download an app called Facebook Research App to be involved in the stud. They also characterized this as “spying,” which we don’t agree with. People participated in this program with full knowledge that Facebook was sponsoring this research, and were paid for it. They could opt-out at any time. As we built this program, we specifically wanted to make sure we were as transparent as possible about what we were doing, what information we were gathering, and what it was for — see the screenshots below.
We used an app that we built ourselves, which wasn’t distributed via the App Store, to do this work. Instead it was side-loaded via our enterprise certificate. Apple has indicated that this broke their Terms of Service so disabled our enterprise certificates which allow us to install our own apps on devices outside of the official app store for internal dogfooding.
Facebook tvrdi da nije krio ovaj program ali ga zato nikad nisu i formalno najavili, kao sto rade za njihove popularne programe, ne postoje objasnjenja na Facebook Help stranama, blog postovi ili prateci info kompanije.
