Similarly, I’ve seen government bodies try to use WhatsApp as their official communication channel.
There is at least one college that I know of, where every announcement is made on Facebook, and Facebook only. Students are forced to have a FB account.
It is just pure laziness. There are some governments (Europe mostly) that are attempting legislation (banning Google Analytics on gov sites, for example). But law is slow to catch up, incomplete and ineffective.
This is not a problem that can be solved completely by law.
- Lio 3y ago> It is just pure laziness. You've hit the nail on the head there. There's no great conspiracy here, it's just lazy people using what they know to get the job done. The great shame is that IMHO it's a terrible outcome. I don't want a Facebook account but I still want to be able to take part in society on open platforms.
