RE: ADSactly Tech News - Social Networks and Silicon Valley's Dirty Little Software Design Secret

in #addiction7 years ago

This tech addiction issue has been on my mind (or attacking my mind) a lot lately, thanks for writing about it so elegantly @adsactly. Being "social" while staring into a small screen by yourself is a contradiction in terms. When humans are isolated and divided, under the guise of unity and progress, we're weakened, more consumer than creator. And then there is the other side of fb, what they do with your data. I just wrote a post here on this—fb is being sued for storing non-users facial recognition data, finally. I deactivated my account almost 2 years ago (no assurances my data is gone, I'm sure it's been stored and traded) & wish I had never entered that swamp to begin with.
