Facebook is the most used method of mind control in our modern internet world!
Facebook receives 1.98 billion users monthly and they are all being monitored. From your facebook wall, likes and comments all the way to your private messages (PMS).
I will call facebook TRACEBook for the rest of this article because you are constantly being monitored on their platform + Tracebook deserves this title.
If you have a perspective which they do not like, you will receive many "troll messages" from Tracebook's shills and be labeled as "fake news".
Steemit is a decentralized, censorship free system which beats that Tracebook 100 times over.
Tracebook's argument?
I looked for the positive arguments for the wide implementation of Tracebook:
Connection
- 1: Tracebook allows you to contact your community every day and remind them of your presence.
Visibility
- 2: You can comment on other Pages as your Page and Like other Page’s posts.
Content Filters
- 3: Tracebook filters "inappropriate content."
Inappropriate content?
If you are seen to be spreading "fake news" you will be censored on Tracebook. But the debate on "fake news" is complex.
What is "fake news"
Fake news is a type of yellow journalism or propaganda that consists of deliberate misinformation or hoaxes spread via traditional print and broadcast news media or online social media. (LINK)
Tracebook has been looking to implement an Artificial Intelligence bot to "weed out the fake news".
What we have to keep in mind is that Tracebook and other social media websites have shills who will actively comment negatively on people's post if they have a counter-argument to the shill's manager.
If anything is fake news it is sending trolls or bots to comment under meaningful articles you dislike, but that part of the story is rarely talked about...
My Opinion on fake news
Corporations control Tracebook because they want their totalitarian and disrespectful messages for humanity to be reach trending and individual's beliefs to go down the gutter.
If a corporation labels something as fake news, I would read it, because it would be real!
It would be an argument which questions authority! Why shouldn't we question authority Tracebook?
This creates negative criticism on honest opinions by people! We are the people! We want to inform each other if a corporation is lying to us!
Have You Joined Mark Zuckerberg's Book Club?
Mark's new year's resolution for 2015 was to create a book club on Tracebook and release his "favorite book" every 2 weeks.
I do not believe Mark is actually supporting his favorite book! He could just as easily sell his "favorite book" choice to authors and corporations. Why wouldn't he? I'm not going to trust in a billionaire who is constantly looking to increase his billions.
Why would you think that?
Because soon after the book club was released Mark pinned his favorite book as...
On Immunity: An Inoculation
This was a book detailing a mother who was worried about illnesses and is pro-vaccines. We might never see the day when an anti-vaccine post is pinned on tracebook's controlled elitist book club.
Why is Mark Zuckerberg so passionate about vaccines all of sudden?
My intuition says that he was paid to promote the book by the medical indutry or one of their shills!
Above, pictured is Amazon promoting the book further by mentioning that Tracebook added it to the "Year of Books" Selection.
Guess what? If you have money you can make yourself look real when you are not! No matter who you are, there is most likely a way to contact Mark, wire some cash and BANG, you are Mark's favorite book of the month!
Your Personal Data on tracebook's is Sold
In 2012 tracebook sold it's shares to the public, tracebook does not have widgets, gadgets or any valuable technology to sell. What they do have is personal data — yours and mine.
Facebook has targeted ads, in order for conglomerates to target their ads, they check your relationship status, location, activities, favorite books and employment.
If you love cupcakes, don't be surprised if tracebook gives you an ad for a local bakery (for example).
Tracebook has larger plans of control!
Material mined online has been used against people battling for child custody or defending themselves in criminal cases. LexisNexis has a product called Accurint for Law Enforcement, which gives government agents information about what people do on social networks. (LINK)
If you have been waiting for your information to be mined and sold to a big corporate-backed social media website you are feeling great.
But those of us on Steemit who are seeking the REAL TRUTH are disgusted.
What if your child was taken away from you because Tracebook says you are a bad person?
They will most likely track tax evaders as well. Which measn if you post your Steemit link on Tracebook they may report you to authorities...
Tracebook will report me to authorities?
YES.
Tracebook is turning to artificial intelligence to detect if someone might be contemplating suicide.
There are already AI in place to detect if someone has posts or videos that contain suicidal thoughts and feelings.
The first keywords they said would be on a watch-list go as follows: "Are you ok" and "Can I help", then the comment and post will be flagged and reviewed by Tracebook's team.
The technic is called Pattern Recognition
Facebook employees who can choose to send resources to the user or alert local authorities. (LINK)
These employees should have proper training and not be paid a bit extra on the side if they supress a certain conversation.
Individual users should be the one's who choose what is read, not a Tracebook shill or AI.
There is no system in place to question Tracebook's authority over who is "suicidal" or not!
Tracebook could say that someone who uses BTC is a terrorist or someone who home-schools their child is abusive.
They could even say that someone who is talking negatively about them is mentally insane!
Do not use Tracebook ever again because you might get arrested! That is a good enough argument for me...
Why Steemit's System kicks Tracebook in the ass!
Tracebook steals your data and sells it while you get NOTHING.
Steemit has a reward pool that is able to be given to anyone chosen by a person who has SP.
This means there is an incentive to write because you are sharing the profits, the era of being deceived and misled into being mined for data is over.

Let's hope and pray that Steemit never gets that way. I could see it being targeted too. Thanks.
At this point I now have faith in the Steemian community to do what is right for the greater good of the platform. It seems the biggest difference between "tracebook" and the blockchain is that "tracebook" is owned and operated under the elite corporations' direction and here at Steemit the people are the owners and operators in a sense that they do have more control and containment ability.
I admit, I was taken back a bit when the big concern over the bots, self voting etc showed up. Almost to the point that it seemed so unsettling that I thought of stepping away from Steemit altogether. What I found however over a week's time was the whales/witnesses or whomever makes decisions at the higher levels are there for the benefit of the platform to insure stability and sustainabilty. Both sides of the argument raised very good points and concerns. There is now plans to work the situation out and coordinate some efforts. That definitely gives me hope.
It is true that Steemit is not perfect.
But I will not go on a platform which has the right to say you should be arrested.
Keep hoping! It's the best we can do right now 👍
Actually, those people who use facebook, they really can not get out of Facebook on the path of destruction and Facebook will not give them anything. Everybody we work in steemit can do anything to life, what do you say?
Yes. You can change your life for the better here on Steemit, while tracebook will only cause narcissism and less socialibility, Steem on!
Thank you very much for telling me a lot of important things which were very important for me. You are very much like me, I can learn from those of us who are young. I like giving you some admonishment, giving me a suggestion.
No worries, keep it up.
Hopefully that sort of thing would not happen here, Steemit being decentralized and all... that being said, since we're completely transparent here, who's to say some taxation and law authority won't create a Steemit account to expressly use for data mining through bots?
That is very true! We can still be mined for data here, atleast here we benefit as well. If ya know what I mean?
Nice article... We hope steemit accepts more users... Then there would be a full bailout from TRACEBOOK
That would be awesome, let's hope Smart Media Tokens does this!
Excellent article. I absolutely do not trust Facebook. I really hope Steemit takes over and doesn't sell out. Thanks for the article. Will follow you for sure!
EDIT: Also gonna restreem this. It's important to know how Facebook treats their users. Maybe the days of Facebook will end, who knows.
I am really hoping for their times of rule to end!
We cannot let the internet abuse and brainwash everyone.
This needs to stop.
Thank you very much 😀
I hope so too! And you are welcome!
Another great post, @chron! Such an important topic. I have to say that I DO believe there is some form of bot algorithm at work on steemit. There are certain topics that definitely do not get visibility/upvotes and they have a definite pattern. I wish it wasn't so, but I have absolutely observed it. Upvoted, following, resteemed! @dakini5d
Thank you very much!
It is because Steemit is made to make the rich richer, it's like normal life!
You have to push a certain agenda to maximize profits, it's bidness really!
Steem on!
brilliant analysis!
facebook is a perfect tool for control people and punish people if they think in another way of the mainstream.
Only for example, i got punished because I liked to many posts, that means for me, they punish people who are too kind, hehehe...
Hey sorry I did not reply to this.
I am currently locked out of my facebook account and and they want me to show a picture of my face.
I will get locked out I'm sure. I'm a robot faced guy there after all :)
Powerful information. Thanks for sharing.
