The end user is king. Facebook is breaking the cardinal sin of software. Not listening to your end users.
As far as EPIC goes? I’ve been getting their emails for years. Outfits like EPIC, nonprofits that employ lawyers to do nothing but litigate their own ideas of right and wrong, should not exist. Why we in America allow people to donate tax deductible dollars to a so-called non-profit that has as its goal the destruction of business is insanity. Why we don’t tax some of these groups, including those like Judicial Watch who has taken in over $100 million dollars is even more insane!
You said it. Go to the Facebook Blog, read the complaints that are almost universal, and the silence from Facebook is deafening.
I think more and more Facebook users are beginning to realize that they are not the end user, they and information about them are the product that is for sale.
