The answer is 'Trust not much / at all', 'Trust a great deal / a good amount', 'No opinion' ”, you can see that Facebook (72%), Instagram (60%), WhatsApp (53%), which are platforms operated by Meta, have low reliability across the board. TikTok also had a very high percentage of 63% who answered that they did not trust it. On the other hand, only four, Amazon (53%), Google (48%), Apple (44%), and Microsoft (43%), had a percentage of 'trusted' exceeding 40%.

In addition, 82% of respondents to the question about targeting advertisements answered that 'targeted advertisements that pop up while browsing the Internet are annoying.' In addition, 74% said targeted ads popping up while browsing the internet were 'undesirable' and only 27% said they were 'helpful'.
