What is right today may not be tomorrow. It's not the case of "nobody actually thinking" for them to take in new information and make new decisions. It's just the opposite.

... then when you do manage to tap/click the X, on some sites it says "closing video..." for 3 more seconds before it closes. Also very annoying.

The "sand" is very clearly the tricky and underhanded tracking and privacy invasion base that FB has built their house on.

Though a can of coke wasn't $1.00 30 years ago, I might still be annoyed at a $1.00 prize for a $0.50 can. On the other hand, the story itself would be worth more than $0.50.

Thank you for clarifying your point. They touched on multiple points of "better" in this article... one of which is "Comfort", "For example, Stanford researchers are experimenting with wearable devices that pump ox

Apologies, but I’m having trouble with your response. It doesn’t seem to be related to the article or my comment. This article is all about creating “better” masks for general public usage in social situations. It seems to say that even wit

This article repeatedly mentions the main issue with masks right now, that they require widespread adoption and usage, while pretending “better masks” will somehow solve it.

What you're describing with that quote isn't cynicism. Especially as far as FB is concerned. That is absolutely business as usual for them and has been for years.

> Given that cynical viewpoint I wouldn't even call that cynical. It's just the state of things.

Can they simply offer a “no ads/no bulk mail” USPS+ option? $5/month? I’d be happy to pay it. It would save a lot of processing costs and trees too. I’m not sure what they are making more than that off my mailbox per month now tho

Wearing a mask as a standard, non-healthcare working, citizen is about protecting everyone else. You are right though, you should protect yourself too, as much as possible.

Why this again? Why are we getting terrible guidance from the WHO and world leaders? 1. Don’t leave your home. 2. If you absolutely must leave your home, symptoms or not, wear a mask. It’s that simple.

Agreed. This could likely be accomplished with a single tweet even. We might have 40% compliance overnight. Why is this not being broadcast from all possible media outlets? “Stay at home. If you just absolutely go out, wear a mask.” It’s re
