Facebook feels manhandled? Now it knows how it's users feel when it: changes privacy settings, makes profiles public, sells information to advertisers, tracks browsing habits outside of Facebook, and comonderes e-mail addresses. Fuck you Facebook. Your little butt-hurt whining means nothing to most people as you made billions off the deal anyway.
Seriously, Facebook screwed many people over in its short life. I can't help but get a little satisfaction out of their IPO issues and lower stock price.
Maybe if they at least pretended they gave a shit about anyone other than themselves they'd get more empathy from guys like me.
Boo hoo.
- grannyg00se 14y agoThis seems like a lot of hostility and resentment for a voluntary, user-generated-content website.
- alttab 14y agoYou say that like there are many other choices. I joined back when only colleges could have access, and it was a safe place to talk to your friends and post your party pictures from last weekend. It has "grown", but also has muscled out any competitors through various means. Facebook takes full advantage of their network effect and to me that feels more like a bait-and-switch with a gun to my head.
- grannyg00se 14y agoAre you saying that you feel you have no choice in life but to maintain an active Facebook account? That is fascinating. And concerning. I do say there are many other choices, but if you feel there are none, our situations must be vastly different. I have no idea how someone could feel that they need Facebook.
