The CCP style Social Score is coming folks and the Social Media is in on it.
Don’t post on facebook and Twitter. Don’t buy stuff at Amazon.
I totally agree. I clicked on FB a few days ago and immediately clicked off. Those on the left feel justified in locking up all Trump supporters. It’s insane.
I have to figure out how to download my photos from years past that are on FB. I hope I can do it in some way it doesn’t take me all day.
I am not any. Thank you for giving me another reason.
I suspect that there are lists of peeps, like me, who have been anti-social online.
Advice bump. A FRee Republic is a Fun Republic. I do know about social media used for nefarious purposes.

It’s easy. You can go into your FB account and click on Settings & Privacy, then Facebook Information and then Download Your Information. It will create a zip file that has all of your info in folders.
How do you think that they gave you that “free” service?
What exact data are you stating is collected?
I VPN from a new non-five-eyes country each day.
I have no social media accounts.
I’m doing this via googlephone.
How vulnerable is that?
I have never had a Facebook account or a Twitter account. There were obvious downsides to not playing their game, but I decided that they would probably misuse my personal info if I gave it to them.
No regrets.
Let them go.
Not much choice for me currently on particular items. The seed mix my parrot has been on his entire life isn't sold anywhere in OK, and the company that makes it doesn't sell to the public.
are there any social media platforms that are safe?
Good advice. A lot of the social media hosts names are well known and easily redirected to localhost in the /etc/hosts file. I think my host file is about 18.5k of such redirects.
Algorithms to put you and I in thought-prisons.
Not on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, or any of those, so at least that’s one thing in my favor. Never even got around to creating an account on Parler.
