I am not a Facenbook fan -- I deleted my account in 2016 and when I tried to come back recently and give Zuck a second chance, my account was summarily banned for being "inauthentic" (completely with a link to the policy, which 404'd). I'd been prepared to have to upload a DL to prove I was me, but never got that chance. Anyway, I think this is fine. A lot of rhetoric about social networks is swayed by teenagers and young adults with either zero ability to make online purchases or limited means. But many of the harms around social media are things like being served beauty ads when you have body dysmorphia -- dastardly stuff preying on people's weaknesses to serve ads. Remove that perverse incentive, and maybe Mark will make better decisions. Some of remember the early Facebook, with robust granular privacy controls. Then the wall came and it all came tumbling down... that could change. |
