    The record is now clear: Facebook egregiously & repeatedly broke the law, turning a blind eye to abuse & putting its rapacious rush to profits ahead of users’ safety.https://www.npr.org/2019/07/24/741282397/facebook-to-pay-5-billion-to-settle-ftc-privacy-case …

        This fig leaf deal releases Facebook without requiring any real privacy protections—no restraints on data use, no accountability for executives, nothing more than chump change fines. Facebook will never reform until forced to.

        The FTC failed to heed history. Facebook has written this penalty down as a one-time-cost in return for the extraordinary profits reaped from a decade of data misuse.The American public is owed more than another Zuckerberg apology & an anemic FTC settlement.

        Posting is easy and it doesn't hurt. There is no pain in the moment. Looking and scrolling is a proven addiction so people aren't going to save themselves from Facebook. Famous faces still advertise their new accounts. There's no law but the affects are public and pandemic

        Zuckerberg always violates his privacy clause and will continue to to do so that's the only way he makes money. You think he made his billions with that beta message board website? LOL Hes a salesman, of private data.

        Of course they did. They created the platform on which users arrogantly told them EVERYTHING about themselves at which point FB sold targeted access to that data to advertisers. Everyone thought it was for them to reconnect with Cousin Fred in Omaha? 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
