"Facebook just doesn’t care." That's been my impression from the beginning.
I wonder how many of these "users" are really bots and corporations hoovering up everything they can about people. I've been occasionally tempted by Twitter, but (almost) never by Facebook. Thanks for the pointer. Cheers, Scott. (Who wonders what will come after FB - MySpace was huge once too... :-/) |

Say it isn't so. A company started by a narcissistic sociopath doesn't care?

"...hoovering up everything they can about people..." Correct, Scott. https://gizmodo.com/how-facebook-figures-out-everyone-youve-ever-met-1819822691 Everyone you have in your Contacts list, plus everyone who has you in their Contacts list. Interesting article. |

Thanks. It couldn't be clearer that nobody should be on FB.
It reminds me that just about every smart phone app wants permission to look at my photos, address book, etc., etc. No doubt they're all doing similar things as Zuckerberg... :-/ Cheers, Scott. |

Yep. I've been thinking about the Nokia 3310 for just that reason.
