New feature: Does Facebook collect more data than Google?

If you use Facebook on your mobile, you know that sometimes it can not be that easy to post a link. First copy, new App open, insert and post. And all on the mobile phone display. This is too complicated for many users. The result: fewer and fewer links are posted on Facebook. Now the social network is planning a new feature.

On Facebook soon also the general search on the Internet should be possible.

And this new feature could be dangerous for Google, because Facebook is planning a search engine. So you could easily look for a link in the status update and then post. This is reported by the website "Techcrunch".

Is Facebook doing away with Google? Questionable, because many browsers Google search is preset. This refers more to the use of a PC. Mobile usage does not make it that easy to use Google. And this is precisely where Facebook comes in: More and more people are using the Internet on their mobile devices. So why not search for links directly on Facebook?

However, the user should be careful here too, because - as well as Google - Facebook wants so to the data of users. More information about the search behavior of a member means more money for ads and more accurate adaptation of the ads to the interests of the user. That could certainly flush money into the box office of Facebook.
