For you and I, it's enough to say "I don't trust them". For the normal users of Facebook, people like my classmates, friends, and family members, they have no way of knowing what I mean when I say I don't trust Facebook. They cannot imagine what you and I know to be possible, if not highly improbable. The first question they ask after me saying I don't trust them is why? I've had to explain some variant of this many many times lately and so I've written it up as something I can send them.

And yeah, I'm worried about google, my bank, my phone operator(no smartphone though), and my ISPs. Just because all of these other companies do it doesn't mean it's alright for them to do. I hate that there are hundreds of files out there that have data along the lines of "Zack Maril, Male, 21". I'd like to find ways to prevent companies from collecting all of that information about me. (Using DuckDuckGo and cash only would probably be a great start.)
