How many of you have never had or have quit their facebook accounts?
I did last week. I got tired of spreading my personal info in Mr. Zuckenbergs advantage and starting to have internet ads stating 'this friend of yours bought this or watched this' crap.
I think Facebook is a wolf in sheeps disguise and most of the people do not realize what they're messing with. They're turning peoples social behaviour into a tool of control and business.
Never had a facebook, but recently decided to look up a few friends and see what they're doing. Found them, added them, said hello. The end. There's a reason why we never call each other up. Facebook isn't going to change that, just gives you the ability to stay in touch in the most passive way. I mean, the least one can do is call or see each other in person, it's infinitely more intimate. I think facebook drives people apart because they feel like they "talk" to someone, but it's just pixels on a screen. You cannot convey real emotion through
Do you think this is just the global trend? Before we had to go to someone's house to talk to them, then call, now we can just send an email or text. A lot of people have the same opinion, but doesn't seem like the majority. Basically everyone I know has a facebook!! Maybe 1/4 of them ever check it, though this is just the beginning of the digital age.
