Well your claim is a lot more expansive, really, because you’re saying that I have no right to sign up for the service myself because you don’t like the busines

Well your claim is a lot more expansive, really, because you’re saying that I have no right to sign up for the service myself because you don’t like the business model. There are some things that are so harmful that that makes sense but I don’t agree that Gmail and Facebook being in that category.
- JohnFen 5y ago> I don’t agree that Gmail and Facebook being in that category. In my opinion, Facebook is unequivocally harmful to society at large. I don't think GMail is unequivocally harmful, although the fact that people can use gmail addresses that don't look like gmail addresses is a problem for those of us who really try to never send email to gmail addresses in order to keep our data out of Google's realm.
- marcosdumay 5y agoThere's a reason the constitution of my country grants me a right to privacy... And before anybody claims that it only restricts the government (it doesn't, it tasks the government into guaranteeing it), we have enough evidence that this kind of business model will be exploited to create an all encompassing gatekeeper for our society's communication, and at this point those companies are really paragovernamental entities, what no country should allow to exist.
