I’d seen Facebook objection to breach language elsewhere, including allegedly legal threats to stop publication of story—so wasn’t referring to his tweets. That said, I think Alex’s explanation does implicate the business model. How is an ordinary person supposed to consent?

Also, they sell you fabric. Well done. The point of the metaphor is that it is incomplete to claim Facebook controls what we share, even though they make the product. Just as it is incomplete to claim fashion industry decides what we wear, even though it makes the product.

Facebook is in a continuous struggle to work out what we will want to do. And yes, it can try to shape that, just as the fashion business can try to shape what we wear. But fashion companies have limited control of what’s fashionable. And FB has limited control what we do on FB.

I’d also add that that “clothing designers” would deny they were in the clothes business even though 95% of their business came from clothes.
