RE: Why I Disagree With The Strategy Of Exiting Facebook, Twitter And YouTube

in #socialmedia7 years ago (edited)

Why is that, you think?

  • "hiring an extra 14,000 people to help fight "fake news", which is expected to have risen to 20,000 by year's end."

Who determines what constitutes as "fake news"?

  • "What kind of corporation does that? What kind of multibillion dollar corporation slashes its own profits that drastically without being legally compelled to, and does it for the good of "people's well-being and society"?"

Are you certain that your notions of "society" and "people's well-being" are the same as his? Because I doubt that very much.

Any corporation involved in the intentional manipulation of information made available to its userbase should be considered malevolent no matter what guise they purport as a reason.

I also used those old social media outlets quite extensively, but stopped since the organic flow was strangled to such a degree that there was no further purpose to remain any longer than it takes one to share something on there.
Every second spent on those weapons of mass confusion be considered a defeat for the world at large, and all of life within it.
