Never had it.
If that’s the only way to reach a company, they don’t get reached.

They're part of the entertainment industry, and your argument is valid for that entire edifice, which includes most of the "news" media as well as all pro athletic activity, and a good bit of college level.

Sound strategy. I’ve found myself saying much the same thing to friends who have their business site on FB.

I joined fb to keep in contact with my wide spread family. I have developed a technique of dealing with fb. First I use my vpn. Second before and after visiting the page I dump all my histories. I am not sure if this does much to screw up their spying but it makes me feel better. I would be interested in any feedback on this method..

I do not have a facebook or twitter account. I am tracked like everyone else. Example: I search on my pc using google and ads show up in Youtube on my Roku box using the Youtube app of what I was searching on.

This on top of Apple threatening to remove Facebook and Instagram from the APP store, because Facebook and Instagram allow secret slave trade apps.

# Everything is relative, especially when it comes to Big Tech, but Tim Cook is the best, brightest, most decent and most straight shooting of that bunch of CEOs.
That’s not exactly how I would describe him, but Apple’s business plan is certainly different from google/facebook/etc.
With Apple, the DEVICE is the product. With these other companies YOU are.
IMO, facebook can’t become the next myspace soon enough.

The silver lining here is that the Android cell phone makers will be pressured to do the same thing to remain competitive.

... who does business with an Evil Empire and employs slave labor to increase profit margins.
