        The vast majority certainly did not ask for any such thing. They just approved something that sounded innocuous and couldn't find the hidden forms and essentially secret tricks to turn sharing off.

        Ugh it’s getting harder to be critical of Facebook now that everyone is spreading lies about them selling private information. Facebook sells one thing to advertisers - the attention of its users.

        The cat is out of the bag now! Facebook, Twitter, etc have MAJOR problems now. We need decentralized versions that pay us for our data, that allow us complete control of our data oR NO DEAL!

        The irony of this statement is brilliant. It would be interesting if someone could create an online trusted ledger where the transactions would be transparent and viewed by several different entities to keep them accountable and trusted. You wouldn't need a 3rd party. ;)

        This is why I’m so excited about trust free products. Bc so many companies LIE about what they make, how they make it and how safe their products are. I’ve seen it up close.

        PPL mad at FB. Sh*t all these sites collect/sell (share) ur info. AND, this is allowed by so many in the chain & is accept'd practice. Po-LIE-ticians and others pay no attention to the ramifications of technology but allow GREED to rule. Look around. Now we have no privacy!

        Blockchain technology can't be developed fast enough. Changing trusted third parties is only an intermediary step. Eliminating them with decentralized trust will be the final step in recapturing control of our indentities

        A regulator's goals are ambiguous and distant, and accountability is none. No incentive to act in the interests of those being regulated. Infact, perverse incentives to collude with those excessively grazing the common good, becoming an active party to 'Tragedy of the Commons'.

        Sometimes? You can never trust a third party. "gvt" is the biggest third party and least trustable that has ever been created by far!!
