What happens to those extremely large data sets? Like I can literally see no good outcome in that situation.

This is all true, and for people who have Normal Folk in their lives, you’re gonna feel pretty compelled to use the platform. I quit immediately after the 16 election, but it absolutely has impacted my social life, and I find out a lot of stuff secondhand from my wife, who does still have an account. But you’re not making things “better” by securing your account better. Facebook is as much or more about harvesting your data. You do not patronize them in a normal model, you are the product, and the patrons are the companies and political groups that leverage the data. You are the eyeballs being sold. But as I said, collective action is required because the platform has way too much of a footprint in our society (much like the problems of climate change or bigotry) to be solved by individual action. Some folks (even in this thread) have ideologies too incoherent to see themselves insisting that the people to blame are individual users and their choices, but it’s a problem only solved through solidarity and collective effort. No one individual has nearly the power or resources of a company funded by, run by and beloved by the billionaire class. (USER WAS PUT ON PROBATION FOR THIS POST)

Caros posted:Seems like the answer here is probably yes, given the fact he is bringing it up, but maybe I'm just reading into it. By bringing the topic up, it makes it likely the answer is definitely "yes", but Barr will say the answer is "no". Goddamned dishonest rear end in a top hat is making it really easy to dive into conspiracy theory with him. When he's been dishonest about so much so far, you pretty much have to start from a position of "he's lying" and once you're there anything becomes possible.

If anyone here's thinking of leaving, if you have a few people that only ever use Facebook that you want to keep in touch with, you can make a new messenger account without having a Facebook account and let them know+add them all to it. But if you close your Facebook account you can't use that same account on Messenger anymore. You could also use Facebook's settings to wall it off from everything except for a small group of people and ads for things you already purchased 48 hours ago.

One of the side effects of living in a post-truth world is that shameless liars don't even need to bother with maintaining internal consistency to their web of lies. It doesn't matter anymore if the different excuses contradict each other. They can now completely modularize the lying and split into teams without even bothering to coordinate.

In the model you’re describing (patronizing sites that white supremacists are using) you are trying to put money in the same coffers he is drawing from. You’re giving money to white supremacists by contributing content to sites that pay them. You think that’s a good look though, I guess. Insert eyes rolling gif here.
