I believe the way this answer is stated, paints a very biased picture. Allow me to provide an alternative vision, which I believe is shared by many (though not as vocal as the other opinion). So, let me share my hopes here:
Maybe some people will finally see through media propaganda, and conformism to realize how much value Facebook brings to their life and how is (US based) facebook is better than other alternatives. These users will hopefully embrace metaverse to have even better interaction will other human beings across the world for business, please and joy, which will allow the to have reacher more meaningful life experiences
- zahma 5y agoYes I am biased. I loathe Facebook and all it stands for. I don’t have a problem with the metaverse even if it’s probably going to be the thing that ages me. My problem is that Facebook will inevitably use it to colonize more data that they do not have a right to. If a simple name change is in order, it’s only because people still don’t understand what exactly Facebook is. Its creation wasn’t to be Good. Its creation was, and ever will be, to exploit these data to the detriment of society which overwhelmingly outweighs whatever good it makes.
- sgregnt 5y agoWell "biased" means that you are not doing an independent impartial assessment of the facts. So admittedly, you're saying your opinion is based off something other than pure facts? I believe I do know how facebook operates to a good approximation, how ranking system operate, and how users data is used for ads targeting and content ranking. Based off my knowledge I think what you write here is a gross misrepresentation of the situation, I do try to be unbiased.
- zahma 5y agoNo, you misunderstand. The argument is against Facebook’s existence and not how it operates.
