Zuckerberg grilled in the Senate

Supersonic

Live on TV now, Mr Facebook is being questioned in the US Senate.

Seems like a nervous schoolkid so far, not very confident at all.

That's not a grilling. That's a foot massage.
No matter how he performs, facebook will get off with a warning. Because everything he gathers on 1.2bn people on whatsapp and fb is important for the CIA, because loads of taxes and jobs, because capitalism.

Hahaha this is such a funny story, it’s been a well known fact for years that Facebook sells your data or allows scrupulous access to it, like the endless reports of accounts being hacked by potential employees, or the endless creative ways they used to come up to make it difficult to change your security settings and set them up right.

I always said and still do, Zuckerberg would sell your soul if he could get it. But that’s what you get for using a ‘free’ service.

But psychographics makes the internet so life confirming.

I’m sure Mark will have a multi billion dollar laugh right back at everyone.

But seriously this is what you are going to to get when people have no idea about what it is they are using, like those they don’t know, install apps and give them unnecessary access to your details. The annoying thing is when those people give access to their details they also give access to my contact details. Choose your friends carefully.

As said before, there is no such thing as a free service. Think about that next time you use free online storage, software, office tools etc. Just think; why would any commercial entity or anyone else incur all those costs and give it away for free.

Just think....

But then when people do, and finally wake up and smell the coffee it is all someone else’s fault.

Let me summarise yesterday for Mark in DC:

I created a product to pick up women that got a bit out of hand and tears down every notion of privacy and identity. (But using it is O P T I O N A L)

Nasty people are now exploiting it.

Not my problem really.

Well you don’t have to use it do you? It’s free. Just delete your account if you don’t like it or didn’t understand what you were using.

That’s precisely what I am saying, yes
