@TheAtlantic@DKThomp Subscribed and waiting. I like virtually everything The Atlantic produces. I don’t always agree, but I always learn. Thanks @TheAtlantic.
@finkd@facebook@petewarden@iagox86@Rapleaf So no, this isn’t new, and don’t believe @Finkd when he says he’s surprised that “they didn’t do enough” —
@Facebook has known about this privacy sh*t show for a long time - they refer to it internally as their ‘business model’. <EOM>

Facebook makes their money by exploiting and selling intimate details about the private lives of millions, far beyond the scant details you voluntarily post. They are not victims. They are accomplices. https://t.co/mRkRKxsBcw
Businesses that make money by collecting and selling detailed records of private lives were once plainly described as "surveillance companies." Their rebranding as "social media" is the most successful deception since the Department of War became the Department of Defense.
@laurashin @tylerwinklevoss @winklevoss I certainly think that moves in this direction are the only realistic way toward mass adoption. @laurashin , chances for an interview with them?
In today’s materialistic world there is a risk of people becoming slaves to money, as though they were simply cogs in a huge money-making machine. This does nothing for human dignity, freedom, and genuine well-being. Wealth should serve humanity, and not the other way around.
