To be fair, the choice was never given to us. There’s no such thing as a social network that people pay for that has no advertising or surveillance. This business model was chosen for us because it would lead to the fastest growth _for the company_.

Forums are commonly considered to be a form of social media/a social network, and there are still many that don't track users, don't have ads, and rely on a modest annual fee (WATMM's membership price is only $3/yr, for example) from users.
