The Single Most Important Reason For Facebook’s Success
- laumars 14y agoAm I going mad or does that article end before it gets started? How Facebook got us to use our real names is pretty well documented, but the result of that is -in my opinion at least- much more interesting. I'd attribute that to the start of the downward spiral of our desensitisation to the erosion of our privacy. Before then, people cared much more about how supermarkets collated shopper habits based on club cards used. Or CCTV cameras. Now few people even seem to care that their e-mails are being scanned for targeted adverts. Maybe I'm being too harsh? Or does anyone else agree?
