RE: Let's Make Sure Steemit Never Becomes Like This...
Zuck's totally knows it too. And Facebook allowing under 13's access shows how desperate this guy is to control the minds of this entire planet.
Facebook, is one big data suck and the only way they make money is to sell our data to the highest bidder.
Haven't been on fakebook in over 2 years now, I think i still have an account there, but I'll be buggered if I know the password or anything to it.
The account that I had under a nick that I used for the administration of a page I was a part of has been dead for over 2 years that I know.
What killed it for me was the sickos who were so obsessed with the "Likes" and so on... and the people without a life who literally lived there, who have lost touch with reality.
Yeah, I avoided it for a long time, until someone suggested it was good for business. I very, very rarely post anything personally, if ever.
I still have a phone, people can text or call me.
It isn't just taking data in, they are also influence, intentionally, perceptions.
They actually did studies in which they showed people happy stuff and another group sad stuff. They found people they showed sad stuff to got depressed and the happy stuff got happier.
So it is within their power to influence how you feel based on what posts make it to your front page. And what is worse, they have shown a willingness to do this.
