Is this a Slashdot discussion or the beginning of a glorious Facebook flame war?;)
I have less bullets to wage such a battle these days, and there are fewer oxygen molecules available in my basement to breathe for the impending digital slaughter.
However, your point is good taken, I do still have much to learn about the ways of grammar! Thank you I will for your gracious correction.
Facebook will have as much danger facing liability for malware as Microsoft faces for botnets.
Big BIZ is immune and deaf to the cries and powerless threats of the little man. Big BIZ owns the government and keeps it in the folds of it's deep wallet. Bug BIZ gets what it wants, and we are at best an ant on it's road to profit.
Unless a sizable percentage of users check into Facebook Unanonymous and successfully complete detox, nothing will change anytime soon.
Seriously, whoever came up with the idea of selling ads to the public as an "experience" ?
The same people that have convinced us that Apple products are not just devices that separate you from large percentages of your income, but a life changing and life enhancing experience... brilliant marketing departments.
Just like TV (that sounds so last century), we are seeing less and less programming, and longer commercials. People complain, but still tune in to the latest episode of keeping up with the Cardassians and Law and the Obsidian Order.
Small and big businesses alike have stopped displaying their own websites in ads and have opted instead to provide a Facebook URL or simply say visit (of like us) on Facebook. The Facebook experience is becoming all to persistent.
The newspapers are doing this because they are in decline. Every form of mass media is saturated with advertising, The value of ads is going down, as we are become so used to them we are blocking them out like the sound of the train in the background.
I tend to agree with you, but yet I see how much money people shell out in pointless Facebook in-game upgrades, or how willing people are to pay for all manner of subscription services ranging from movies to music to MS Office and Adobe Creative Suites.
Agreed. It seems the ratio of undesired content to desired content is continuing to shift further and further towards advertisers that soon we will have to scroll all the way down to the bottom of a page to see one relevant post. Where will it stop!?
Once it becomes Illegal to disconnect your neural implant from the 'Net' you will have no choice but to view endless ads 24 hrs a day, awake and asleep. The day is coming.
And we though the survivalists were preparing to escape people with guns... no it's to avoid the mandatory ads, ruled constitutional by the Supreme Court decision of 2022 under the individual mandate...

So, this was written by ISIS?
China does not mess around. Its leaders know what they want to do and have the long-term vision and fortitude to see it through.
My computer uses Velcro.
I'm safe.
Makes ya wonder what else is hiding out there, inside every household appliance, every modern car, every LOL cat.
"The world is changing... I can feel it in the water."
Something has been awoken. It's senses it's time has come.
Most of those 'friends' on Facebook aren't really your friends. Most of them wouldn't stop eating their doughnut if they found out you'd died.
That explains why I see less posts from people...

Yes, requests from Candy Crush, can't leave your friends hanging.
"Everyone who's anyone uses Facebook! Don't be such a square!"
Some people will leave. However, there are far too many addicted users that would have an easier time kicking a heroin habit than giving up Facebook.

Don't read the following text if you wish to avoid the before mentioned crappy product.
Please advert eyes to really avoid...
Facebook.
On today's Internet, an Ad-blocker does more to protect your computer than traditional anti-virus software. What a world, what a world...
"Your proposal is acceptable."
How else am I going to farm my pixels? I have to keep harvesting them every day
Will this lead to a paid version of Facebook, that allows paid subscribers to see less or no ads?
They did recover the emails, but to everyone's shock and dismay, it was the same message over and over again:
