Facebook just needs to be gone forever now.
- Kiro 8y agoWhy?
- HenryBemis 8y agoBecause: a) it is not possible to tear it down and start over with good material/intentions/ethics b) they do not want to change their model, because they are making money from their current practices c) it is a VERY useful tool for evey government's dark/shady practices (gag order + give-us-everything)(exactly what every dictatorship does) d) people need to be protected even if they don't understand the risks (e.g. houses are built following a code - even if people don't understand that walls need X material and I-beams need to have Y width).
- CamperBob2 8y agoe) 'Black Mirror' was supposed to be a screenplay, not a business plan
- eeZah7Ux 8y agoSame for 1984

- squarefoot 8y agoIn the long run it would not change a thing. Personal data is a huge business, Facebook demise would just put some smoke and mirrors in the media, then their customers would be sucked in by Google and others, at the same conditions. Limiting corporations power would be one thing but I don't expect any politician to move in that direction when either they're lobbied/bribed by the same entities they should limit, or face the risk of having their career destroyed (search for "mccarthysm").
