My hope is that this triggers a second backlash.
- Bakary 6y agoBut we just got proof that backlashes can be ignored, so what's the point?
- qznc 6y agoIgnored? Lots and lots of people installed Signal or Telegram. Some of them will stay.
- Bakary 6y agoIf Fb is going forward with the change, then they've realized that those people are a rounding error.
- CTOSian 6y agoexactly, how many people care about the TOS? most of the people I know use their phones like zombies, just clicking on the apps and to any "OK" button they see...
- Bakary 6y agoOver time, I've come to progressively reject the "zombie/sheeple" criticism of that behavior. People just want to live their lives, and we should focus our attention on the rent-seeking tech companies that try to cynically exploit us instead of victim-blaming. It's true that people could try to be more aware of what is going on, but we ought to work towards a world where we aren't nickel-and-dimed every second of the day by massive corporations.
