RE: Facebook Wants U.S. Bank Data on It's Users, Trying to Make Deal for Banking via FB

in #privacy6 years ago (edited)

There's a reason banks won't do this. FAANGs are becoming too powerful. Banks have long been excelsior supreme regarding political and financial power, and the FAANGs are without a doubt challenging, if not already assuming, that power.

How hard would it be for FAANGs to simply apply for charters and become banks, once the customers were already using the platforms for that purpose? Banks are losing a tug of war for financial custom already, and cryptos are shots across their bows.

Allowing FAANGs to be the destination for banking would essentially retire the banks themselves.

But, that's no endorsement of banks from me. When wolves, lions, and bears fight over the sheep, the sheep little care who wins. FAANGs and banksters compete for our meat. Neither is going to secure to us the blessings of liberty. They seek to impart those of neoliberalism, which provides inexpensive warrens for the cannon fodder between profitable wars.

I no longer use either industry. I haven't had a bank account since 2010, haven't used Fakebook or Twatter for years, and recently dropped paying $70/mth for internet.

We don't need them, and they are harming us. FAANGs are censoring us, and the Infowars deplatforming shows clearly that this isn't individual platforms internally using their policies to prevent 'hate'. It's a coordinated centralized program to precisely control what information we see, have, and share. The enemedia is working hand in glove with other corruptors of society to corrupt government, to harm each and all of us.

Quit paying them people! Every dollar you make Fakebook, Wells Fargo, and pay in taxes is used to lie, enslave, and murder people for profit. At this point, if you're not looking for a way off enemedia platforms, and publishing on decentralized, censorship free platforms like Steemit, Busy, Dtube and Dlive, you're the enemedia, or hopelessly compromised.

I don't use banks. I don't post on FAANGs. I'm considering banning those that do from my personal feed. I act unilaterally to walk my talk, and if we all do, not only would my work be easier - defeating the evil banksters profiting from war - but we'd win NOW.

Quit using Youtool, Fakebook, Twatter, and the rest of the enemedia to reach out to normies. No more excuses. They need to die the death of all rapine conquerors, and be relegated to the ash heap of history. We need to move forward towards freedom, not back deeper into the maws of our predators.

Do business, speak freely, and live your lives on platforms, media, and through businesses that don't contribute to oppression, propaganda, and theft.

Here. This is the place!

Thanks @krnel!
