    This.

    Also, we are not influenced by what we post, rather what we read.

    Not at all.

    What you are describing is competition in a vertical market.

    ... not a fucking 3-pointer in the whole thread.

    It's blocked by Facebook.

    Uninstall that and try again.

    If that doesn't fix it, suspect that I'm full of shit.

    Really?

    Again?

    I thought we were Pastis.

  7. As long as you add it, you are correct, right?

    You did and we move on.

  8. Who the fuck, in the context of this thread, gives a flying shit?

    You're off topic.

  9. ... disrupt.

  10. Add the "ethical," part and you are correct.

  11. Like you, I was not an IT guy at all for-profit companies in the US.

    You may have worked in IT for finance, but I'm naturally skeptical.

    When I interview for my first IT job, I competed with several others for the position.

    Management told me later that I got the job because of my answer to the first question:

    What do you bring to the table?

    I said, "Ethics. You get that first and people skills, next. After that, you get the skills I have now, and my natural aptitude to embrace new technologies as they appear on the horizon."

  12. Get off the sauce, OK?

    What in Sam Hill are you talking about?

  13. It's a global network. Everyone is allowed to play.

    WAS allowed to. That's the fucking point of the investigation.

    If you really think ...

    Doesn't matter what I think. The facts speak for themselves.

    It's much like our surface navies facing off.

    It's not like that at all.

  14. The fallacy is that you fail to consider OTHER government's (and Columbia Analytica) contamination of the social media platform(s ... all).

  16. All well said, and this especially:

    ... there is no work and employment loyalty.

  17. Re:Is it really ethical or CYA on Some Facebook Employees Are Quitting or Asking To Switch Departments Over Ethical Concerns (businessinsider.com) · · Score: 5, Interesting

    Both of you miss the point:

    These employees are mid-career and they know full well that lifetime employment is not a thing.

    As they grow their vocation, they may have opportunities to move into security or finance or places that just like to have ethical ranks.

    Yeah, imagine Facebook's market capitalisation if HE had business skills.

    Just think, HE could've created a massive multinational advertising behemoth with a double-digit percentage of the world's population as users.
