I'm dubious of just handing these guys my browser history. Facebook et al use your social graph not just for personalisation but for advertising.

Also: filter bubbles.
the data collected from the history is not associated with the user account, only analysed; and the plugin/extension respects private/incognito mode, according to the privacy policy: https://lumi.do/about/privacy
So how are they supposed to personalise your content if they don't know who visited what?
