Not really when that service is offered free of charge. I am pretty sure most people in India, Africa don't give a shit that Facebook uses their data to serve them ads. They and the world, gets an invaluable service in return.

I certainty don't care.

Facebook uses their data today to target ads.

What the data gets used for later by Facebook, the government or organized crime, when it inevitably gets stolen, is anybody's guess.

Apple uses their data today to create various products.
