No, understood, I wasn't saying you were defending Facebook, but I really do think its core purpose has changed. Even the way it functions is pretty drastically different than its initial offering. I only used Facebook when it very first started and my University was added to the list of included Universities, and I didn't use it much since I didn't really trust it. Many years later (just last year), after leaving a job and my employees wanting to keep in touch with me, I started to occasionally log in just to check for messages, and it was a completely different place as far as I could remember. Nothing seemed familiar anymore, the "clean myspace clone" aspect was pretty much gone, since the social part was pretty much gone in favor of the feed. The rest is still there, but it seems like an afterthought now as opposed to what gets shown on the feed.
