The internet has turned men into boys and women into girls. Harsh statement? Yes. True statement? Yes.
The whole issue surrounding Facebook and privacy policy is getting just out of hand. Everywhere you freaking go it’s “I am gonna quit Facebook, if they don’t fix this.” Well, guess what? You should. I understand the way they rolled out things weren’t wise, but there has been so much talk about it that by now if you still don’t know how to hide your shit, you don’t deserve to be on it anyway. Besides, what makes you think your stuff is private anywhere? Half of you people who whine and moan are the same people that have handed Nigerian scammers your email and physical address in hopes of getting a couple million dollars, and here you are talking about privacy? Bite me.
The same people that talk about privacy issues surrounding Facebook are the ones putting videos of their toddlers on YouTube for the world to see. Images of them laying on bed with their other half on Flickr and what not, and you guys are the ones touting about privacy? Facebook at the end of the day is a business and as a business there goal is to dominate the world cause well, it’s Facebook and they are well on their way. The privacy issue is blown way out of proportion and since half of you don’t have anything better to do, it’s time to join all the hate filled page ON FACEBOOK. Here’s the kicker, you need facebook to bitch about facebook!
Privacy on the web is dead. No matter what you do, how you do…there is someone who knows how to get that info out in the public. Don’t make it a big deal, take a big boy/girl pill and suck it up. Huffington post called Facebook privacy issue as bad as the oil spill, I don’t know how the two can be compared but I guess they can be, I fail to see it.
And finally, if you are going to take a shit in the middle of the road and expect the world not to point fingers at you, you are dumb. If you have something that private, don’t share it on Facebook, simple. Web is open, web is transparent whether you want it to be or not is a different thing. We all have our opinion. I am sure many of you have a different opinion than mine and I respect it.
My frustration isn’t related to Facebook alone, it is related to web as a whole and Facebook just happens to be the center of it all. Privacy is dead.
