"The social network said that it should have done more to notify members about the global launch."
NOOOOO. They just don't get it. It isn't about notification. It's about violating my privacy without asking permission first.
You can roll out any feature you want silently, so long as it is turned off by default!
- pflats 15y agoOf course they get it. They just don't care. If this was opt-in by default, it wouldn't get nearly the same adoption. Lots of people would click no, then never change the setting. The general public will eventually get over it, the same way they got over {the news feed, suggest a friend, changing interests to likes, letting people without .edu accounts sign up, ...}. Facebook knows this. PR probably had the apology written before the feature was turned on.
