Andbreathe Posted December 21, 2017 Share Posted December 21, 2017 Maybe look at it from this angle, imagine you are a political opponent of Donald Trump, and Donald Trump is the founder of Facebook. Happy? Do you have a Facebook account? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ENG601PM Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 Bit cryptic. Could you expand? I thought that it was crystal clear but tell me which part didn't you understand and I will try to help. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RollingJ Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Sorry -I must have my 'thick' head on today, because I can't make sense of any of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ENG601PM Posted December 22, 2017 Author Share Posted December 22, 2017 OK. I'll try it another way. Imagine you are Hillary Clinton, and Mark Zuckerberg is Donald Trump. How do you feel about Donny having access to all your personal Facebook data and your supporter's personal data, and billions of dollars available to manipulate what they see and how they see it? We don't know anything much about Mark Zuckerberg except that his company has the personal lives of billions of people on its servers. That makes him a deeply unfit person to be POTUS in my eyes.

RollingJ Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 OK - makes more sense now, but that's a reason I have put only the bare minimum of info in my FB account, which I only have to watch what a very limited number of people are up to. IMO, if you have an account, you should be EXTREMELY careful of what and how you post. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop giving out your data. He has it because you volunteer it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anna B Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Stop giving out your data. He has it because you volunteer it. If you use a computer, smart phone, Sat Nav, bank card etc, you are constantly giving out data every time you use it. You don't have a choice. When every tiny insignificant detail is joined together, it creates a comprehensive profile of you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stifflersmom Posted December 22, 2017 Share Posted December 22, 2017 Offhand, I can't think of a less useful contribution. It is sound advice though, so it is useful. People don't seem to understand that they can limit the data they put out, and what happens to it once it is given away is something that they aren't in control of. I don't buy the comparison to Trump either; regardless of Zuckerberg's ethics he doesn't appear to be a dim witted racist sympathiser with a narcissist attitude.
