Dismantling Your Right To Privacy


This is one way how Big Brother starts by getting bigger and more intrusive over time. Invented for public peaceful use, this communication service could easily turn against the populace by exploiting, controlling, and monitoring them continuously. Is it worth it?   

YouTuber Matthew Frederick explains it all on vid and does a very good job at it (funny and serious), but be sure to read the small artical: This Is Why You Should Delete Facebook Permanently.

Facebook Exposed From The Inside

I'm not surprise by this........Read: The Huffington Post article about Katherine Losse's new tell-all book, "The Boys Kings: A Journey into the Heart of the Social Network." She is a former Facebook employee for 5 years as an insider into how the company and mind of Mark Zuckerberg operates. Losse’s wrote a very fascinating book and does not give much confidence in how the Facebook Company does business. Scroll down on the website and read the 16 other surprising (disturbing) things about Facebook you did not know. Conveyed in Losse’s book is the notion that Zuckerberg thinks HE is god and how He is changing the world the way HE wants it to be by exposing everything about people in an open “virtual-real” environment and trace their every movement, like wearing a marker or homing tag (like tagging an animal), on you every minute; this information is not shared only with just friends or family, but revealed to third parties like advertisers, Facebook staff (they can read your private mail, undelete your photos or account to view your personal life, and follow your every movement), and who knows what else.
My take is that they are creating a geo-personal data system of people globally, almost like a matrix ID biological and GPS representative of YOU. Not as intrusive as the idea of having a computer chip universal ID placed under your skin against your will, but Facebook’s data base system is very similar to what Big Brother would enjoy utilizing and abusing to track everyone on the planet, good or bad, for ultimate intimation and giving a false sense of security.

The Death of Facebook: Inevitable.

Don’t fool yourself. Facebook in its present form will not last forever. Other similar sites went south and never came back like Napster, GeoCities, Friendster, Yahoo, Sirius Radio, My Space, and American Online. A lot of them morphed into something else, but never quite the same as before nor have the same impact. Everything changes in time like laser disc to blue ray. Companies fold all the time and more recently long-term, well-known establishments all over the place have already gone bankrupt or bought out or sold to another company altogether. Facebook stock is not for the meager, but design more for the already rich to profit off the latest IPOs. But the stock continues to fall and long-term investors wonder just what is Zuckerberg going to do to make the FB company something of real value. Facebook is losing its cool factor very quickly. Big Brother already likes FB and its free Intel it can get access to and used to go after not only the guilty, but innocent too. Privacy concerns, Freedom of Speech, Civil Rights, basically our “Bill of Rights” mean almost nothing today by “those who watch” and “the powers that be” if you tweet it or think-say something they deem warrant enough to censor or slander you by robbing you of your Freedom of Speech or worst. Social Networking is a peaceful gathering, nothing more. Granted FB is great for family and friends to keep in touch, and that’s what it should be used for......nothing else. As an investment.... Shop around because Facebook will not be there forever. Read The Huffington Post article on Facebook.
