Now you’re crossing a line - no personal attacks.
I’ve been on here longer than you.
I’ve been writing code for over 35 years and I’ve always found FB history strange, been looking at it for a long time. Considering recent events around censorship and the de-platforming of conservatives, i.e. they think they really can control information on the internet, this isn’t much of a leap. FB is a monopoly, now colluding with the other tech giants in lock-step. Cross reference that against how the media and the deep-state seem to behave and you’ll have to convince me there’s no relationship.
Actually all of the disparaging posts aside research shows that the premise Fuzzylogic puts forth is well founded. As for the silly responses about AOL and My Space as competitors to be used displays the ignorance of the commenter’s of what those platforms were designed for versus LifeLog.
Look into the whole Snowden revelations and the data mining and selling going on at Google and others and the picture becomes quite clear. Add in the silly notion of adding in your DNA information so you can see if you have “relatives” elsewhere and the data pool gets deeper and wider. All of this information is put to use by a variety of agencies, Medical Companies and others. Zuckerberg once comented that he did not have to force information from users, the openly and excitedly provided a treasure trove of personal information that was added into the mix for a personal Profile for as many people in the world as are willing to participate. Read George Gilder’s book, “Google - Life after the fall” and you will be educated why Google “gives” things away to gain access to the data they can capture and sell for advertising and other uses.
So I come down firmly with most if not all of what FuzzyLogic posits. I have been around code cutters for decades as well as multiple application environments bot on delivery as well as backup, redundancy and just about every tangent there is.
So say what you want, the truth is out there and my experience here on FR of 20 years tells me when Trolls get obnoxious and go after someone who “gets it” you are over the target and the ones slinging the most mud are obvious by their demeanor and messaging.
Roll on Fuzzy, I got your back
I’ve been coding for 35 years too and saw the rise and fall of comouserve, AOL, MySpace and Geocities.
Facebook is no different and wasn’t coded by the CIA. I’m sure the Democrats happily get access to all the private data Facebook collects for free but it’s not a government psyop.
You’re so gung ho to “reveal the truth” that you miss the more obvious avenue of government control - that of seeing and having access to every financial transaction made through credit and debit card transactions. Every text message you send goes over the internet and the government collects all that info via FCC regulations.
But please, do continue with your conspiracy theories.
“Considering recent events around censorship and the de-platforming of conservatives, i.e. they think they really can control information on the internet, this isn’t much of a leap.”
That’s the part that I keep coming back to. But they don’t THINK they can control info on the net. They DO. All the conservatives who have been banned ... where do you go to connect with them now? Their messages are important, but they’ve been silenced.
