I don't disagree that our concern should be more broadly distributed. The thing that's different about Facebook is the site is also surveilling your social interactions and rank-ordering them to keep you engaged (and YouTube for your interests). Not an either/or concern though.

That's a different issue. On the topic of ads 1. Facebook doesn't sell your data 2. FB shows you targeted ads 3. Most of the data used to target you is from outside Facebook (click on "why am I seeing this ad?" for a bunch of ads in your feed)

I don't think I need to be explained how Facebook works.

Loading seems to be taking a while.
Twitter may be over capacity or experiencing a momentary hiccup. Try again or visit Twitter Status for more information.
. Calling this ‘selling your data’ is far more misleading, IMO. Much better to call it what it is and argue about that, rather than try to define it as something else.
