I'd love more reasons to hate Facebook, but is there any real sourcing for that? @Snowden seems to be linking to BoingBoing, who then links to Fight for the Future[1], which just claims secret sources. OK, but are they known to historically have had accurate secret info?
Their landing page has this quote "If CISA passes, all your photos, posts, relationships, and likes will have a path to government databases." Which, from what very little I understand, is not quite true. At a minimum, "government databases" already have such a path via subpoenas, NSLs and such right?
I want to believe FB is worse, yes. I'd just like a more convincing source to give people.

- propogandist 11y agoFB made it seem as if their CEO was donating his wealth to charity, even though his wealth was going to a private LLC. Most people believe Zuckerburg is a saint and just know the story propogated by the PR firms. People are not going to distrust a [free] service they use daily, they'll give FB benefit of the doubt, time and time again. It doesn't matter how good the source, today's users are addicts.
