Require our real names be attached to social media and SM will die in a week. Same for newspapers’ anonymous hotlines. Same here, too.
FBI found 'bucket of heads, arms and legs,' bodies sewn together
You’re right. I only posted that response because these stories are popping up now trying to engender sympathy for youtube and facebook. IMHO it’s the propaganda machine ramping up to protect Alphabet and Facebook from the baclash that is coming.
Nice reply, VTenigma, thanks for posting that. :-)
