Facebook does not exist to help us make friends, but to turn our network of connections, brand preferences and activities over time -- our "social graphs" -- into money for others.
It’s like the Mob - you can never leave.
Ever.
Facebook is cool because it lets me be a butthole with a whole new set of rules and variables.
This fact may not be of value to everyone.
I bet this CNN guy got pawned on Facebook by conservatives
Ahhhh, but to us FReepers... You’ll always be our Number One butthole.
Now THAT adds value.
And to supply raw data to be digested by Identity Thieves.
You would love twitter.
Instant butthole
to the writer of this filth....You won’t be missed. Never knew you to begin with. Glad to rid of you. I enjoy Facebook enough to keep with it. Talk about a quiter. I guess that motto, “When the going gets tough....”
I like how this article shills his new upcoming book.
And if he quits FB, how will he ever use that media to shill said new upcoming book??
Exploitation works both ways, ya know.
I just got a tweet from #Instantbutthole.
Humble, is that you?
I hope Mr. Rushkoff realizes that you can give up your FB account, but FB owns all your stuff forever.
Facebook: Face of Evil.
I would say you are correct.
He did not get the pandering and boot licking he thought he deserved.......so whaaa whaaa whaaa he is going home.
What raw data?
Guess some people just can’t be bothered to find out how to disallow certain unwanted actions by turning off/opting-out various functions; or to read instructions & learn to use their technology properly.
Kind of like the idiot blocking a single-lane road that my brother had to help in the snow. Idjit had 4WD, snow tires & chains on all four, but digging holes in the rear while the fronts did nothing: “What do you mean by ‘I have to engage the front differential for the 4WD to work?’”
reminds me of disgruntled former Freepers that write a long whiny posting why they are quitting.
Not sure what this guy is talking about. You can control your image on facebook by deciding what you do or do not decide to post. Just dont post to blogs using your facebook identity. Some like CBS marketplace require an identity like facebook and do not allow anonymous posting. Just ignore those.

It was hilarious last night -- "Yeah, I tried to buy an ar-15 at the gunshow but they wouldn't sell to me, I was gonna show the teabaggers how easy it is, what gives with this, man?" and people going back and forth on that.
It was funnier last night before I came across this obamanation.

The data obviously vary from sucker to sucker, but basically family relationships, and locations that provide answers to security questions asked by financial institutions.
That is what facebook is made for.
FaceBook is inhabited by liberals who accuse you of being a hateful person if you politely disagree with them. GET OFF OF IT!
