That was my point.

How did they hide it? It was their business model. The one they copied from google.

Are you saying that facebook forced the grandparents to use facebook?

I'm not a fan of either facebook or Apple. My dislike of apple goes back. But I taken aback by the anti-fb posturing justaposed by the pro-google and pro-apple lobby here.

I'm not saying that facebook is good. I'm saying apple isn't good either.

It's so striking how an innocuous comment in every anti-fb thread is met with downvotes and attacks.

I agree with you. Facebook is terrible. That's why I don't use it and never have. But I also don't use apple products because apple is terrible. Is that okay?
