Privacy is important to me too; extremely important. Going further, I have deep concerns about the way modern social media manipulates billions of people. At the same time, technology in general and social media in particular has brought tremendous value to the same billions of people's lives. It's natural for us, by default, to most clearly remember the bad and reflect deeply on it. That has been a spectacularly successful survival characteristic through almost all of our history. As to the good: I'm not going to spend time citing any number of positive things that would have only been possible with social media. Anybody who cares to have a balanced view of things can easily find such a list. I will say simply this: what little valuable social contact my autistic son has been able to partake in has only been possible because of social media. Does that single fact balance out all of the bad that's come from social media? All of the dangers and challenges? Certainly not. But it's one good thing, among uncounted others. tl;dr: Only a Sith deals in absolutes. Don't be a Sith!
