You can still opt for taking money out of an ATM and and pay by cash to not be tracked by the card company. Meta does not offer the same option

You have to use Meta? I'm not arguing for or against privacy here - just trying to point out that you still have options. It might be a pain to contact loved ones, check in on friends, etc. but so is using an ATM.
shadow profiling doesn't care if you directly use Meta products. You're information about your friends, and another example of trends.
"Simply create your own social media company and get all the people you want to keep in contact with to move to it"
When did I say anything like that? You can call or txt to check in on friends.
