Does this make you feel any better? Worse? I personally feel like I've been suckered.
Maybe it's time to start blogging again and cut back on Facebook. Maybe it's time to spare my Facebook friends my strong opinions on current events and history, and go find some cat videos to post instead. Maybe it's time that I stop sharing my opinions for them to send to advertisers, and Lord knows who else.
Maybe it's time to delete the Facebook apps from my mobile devices, because I don't know what the hell they're doing behind my back. Limiting my Facebook access to a safe browser with tracking, ad and script blocking (when needed) is the only way I feel (somewhat) comfortable getting on Facebook at all these days. I know that they scraped my iOS address book a while back, when people from my office and client started showing up in my suggested friends list. I wonder what else they have on file?
I'm heading over to this room, and I'll post links to here on Facebook in case anyone wants to follow me over and listen in. But be warned:
- This is my private forum. I write about what I want.
- I do not self-censor here.
- When appropriate, sentence enhancers will be used liberally. A language warning is in effect at all times.
- You will not find political correctness here.
The solution, should anything here harsh your mellow, is to stay far away, and ignore me when I link to this site in Facebook or Twitter. We'll all be happier.
Of course, this site belongs to Google, so out of the frying pan and into the fire, as the saying goes.
