And FB will continue to spy on you and create shadow accounts for you in case you should sign on again. Big tech has become a loose cannon and needs to be reined in. Hard.
- caskstrength 5y agoWell, the most popular complain is that FB will "radicalize" you by their psy-ops algorithms based on your profile. If you don't read news on FB, then they can't show you antivax/trump-supporter/whatever posts, right? Besides, I always get a feeling of hypocrisy when this is being discussed because the argument people make is that FB is scum of the earth that will destroy democracy and society but the same people wouldn't delete their account because then they will miss the posts of their knitting group or something. So for me it seems that either people who are making the argument actually don't consider FB as much of a threat, or they value democracy and civic society less then their knitting group. Anyway, let's not derail NFT discussion into typical HN big-tech-hate flamewar. Sorry I brought up the subject.
