Facebook launches tool which allows users to control apps and websites data sharing

Facebook is now making it easier for users to control data sharing. Facebook is launching a tool that allows users to control the data they share with their application and websites. This new tool is called Off-Facebook Activity. This new feature will be gradually rolled out to consumers in Ireland, Spain and South Korea. However, in the coming months, the Off-Facebook Activity feature will be available to consumers all over the world.
With the Off-Facebook Activity feature, users will be able to see a summary of all the information that apps and websites send to Facebook through online business tools like Facebook Pixel and Facebook Login. You will be able to disconnect all information if you wish. In addition, they will be able to disconnect their account's Off-Facebook Activity in the future.
Once you clear your Facebook Activity, Facebook will delete your identity information from the data sent to apps and websites.
That is, Facebook will not be able to know which websites you have visited and what actions you took during your visit.
Facebook says it will not use the data to display ads after disconnecting it. This will have a bad effect on Facebook's business, but Facebook believes that users should be given more control over their data.
