When American adults were asked if they agree or disagree that some online companies, such as Google or Facebook, control too much of our personal information and know too much about our browsing habits, 76 percent agree. Only 16 percent disagree, according to a new survey by Adweek and the Harris Poll.
While majorities of both men and women agree that these companies control too much and have too much information about us, women are somewhat more likely to say this than men are (79 percent of women, 74 percent of men).
Yet, despite a large majority of Americans agreeing that these companies know and control too much, Americans are more likely to say they oppose government intervention to regulate large online companies like Google or Facebook (46 percent) rather than support it (36 percent) .
