So you join Facebook. They hoover up as much data about you as possibly can. Sell it to marketers who advertise to you. Allow, either intentionally or not for politically motivated agencies to try to draw phycological conclusions from the data and use that to display adverts.
Ok... but you the public don't have to follow what adverts say, or pay any attention to adverts. You don't have to be so easily influenced or gullible.
All this leaked data to Cambridge analytical etc.. yeah so, the issue is the general public if they acted on the adverts/fake news, then we have a problem, and education is clearly what's needed.
Over my life I've seen 1000's of adverts for Fairy washing up liquid. And never once considered buying it. I just buy the cheapest or a more eco friendly one if it's on offer. Fairy are welcome to spam my Facebook for the rest of my life, I'll still pay no attention to it.
- but your hands that do dishes feel as soft as your driveway.Fax_Benson
- why does fb ads think you are target audience for Fairy? Do you talk a lot about dishes? did you google it?uan
- Are Fairy claiming their rivals run a sex ring and will get your dad's job at the iron foundry back? I bet they are. Never trusted that little kid.Fax_Benson
- yup. totally agree.Gnash
- Who the fuck, in the year of our Crystalline Jesus 2018, uses facebook or any of these digital cunt factories *without* an adblocker?face_melter
- you make 'cunt factory' sound like a bad thingGnash
- +1 for adblocker - essential, as is a tracker blocker etc etchans_glib
- ^ if to be trusted. Also Fairy washing up liquid doesn't profile you, know where you are right now, what your thinking. Its a bit deeper than all of this.mugwart
- I’ve never used an ad blocker of any type.monospaced
- Fairy doesn't need to use fear and lies to sell itself... right wing politics does. That's the differenceSlashPeckham
- yep mugwart, way deeper than this.fadein11
- ad blockers are a funny thing to mention in a forum where a lot of people make their living from creating ads...SimonFFM
- @slash - right and left seem to be both as bad as each other. We live at a strange timesmugwart
- Fairy was just an example brand. Though one could argue I won't even think of such a brand if it wasn't for their advertising.shapesalad
- fear is exploited all the time in advertising.
Fear of: aging, dying, being alone, not fitting in, being a bad parent/lover/caregiv...Gnash - and just look at ANY political TV ad -- it's always DOOM & GLOOM if you vote for the other guyGnash
- interwebs is no differentGnash
- ^ miss the days when it was just sex!mugwart
- What the fuck are you not buying Fairy for? Its the only washing up liquid one should even consider buying. I'll never understand people.detritus
- lol det (nods in agreement)fadein11
- difference is you know when it's a TV political ad as opposed to an online fake news storyfadein11
- I don't have as blocker. I'm just immune ads. I'm practically jimmypango
- shapesalad, do you even work in advertising??? You are like a lumberjack cutting down trees then claiming that forest isn't disapearing because of your actions.pr2
- You are totally oblivious to how your senses and biology work.pr2
- Because of that i'm CONVINCED that adverts work you over all the time. Only acute self awarness protects individuals from their onslaught.pr2
- ignoring consumption is the only thing that saves you.uan
- but then it becomes irrelevant and only eats resources, your cpu, memory and bandwith and you end up installing ghostery or using braveuan
- still those don't safe you from information consumptionuan

After 6 years I deleted my account. They don't make it easy at all.
Then from deletion it takes 14 days to disappear.
Wonder what I'll do with all the free time, won't have as many fun memes to post on here, but maybe I'll speak to my family more. :-)- did you d/l your data first and manually delete your likes, comments and photos?notype

@shapesalad
I agree with you that a few ads on our timelines shouldn't be an issue in this day and age to those who are savvy to their dark ways (fuck Fairy Liquid and Nanette Newman).
https://encrypted-tbn0.gstatic.c…
But that's not the issue with what has happened over the past couple of years – it's the fuckwits who are susceptible to the kind of vulgar persuasion being used that are the issue. The simple minded Trump followers in the US; the gammon faced blowhards in the UK. In the US it only took 70k voted to swing the electoral college and with Brexit, leave had a tiny majority.
Never underestimate the ignorance and gullibility of the man on the street. On a purely anecdotal level, I watched my own Dad turn into a dribbling xenophobe during the Brexit campaign and I was shocked at the level of arsehole he was conversing with on Facebook. The state of his feed was ridiculous and he would not accept it was colouring his view of the world.
- Fair point. Fairy point.shapesalad
- yep +1fadein11
- propaganda has always worked on the weak minded, and will always work on the weak minded. whatever form it takes.Gnash
- this kind of hyperbolic creation only serves to strengthen and justify the inevitable calls for more gov't intervention where it doesn't belongGnash
- there are already laws for this kind of privacy breach. charge them appropriately and move on.Gnash
- the catastrophizing is just colouring the other 'dribbling' arseholes world viewsGnash
- I should say about my Dad, and I think this is key, I was wrong to say 'turn into a dribbling xenophobe'; it obviously always there and the micro-targeting...Wolfboy
- ...and fake news bots brought it to the surface.Wolfboy
- I often wonder how far does this 'fake reality' lead us? BBC? FOX? Or just facebook?mugwart
- the problem is the internet is still relatively new media, kids will be able to identify all the signs of blatant manipulation. The old guard can't and that'sfadein11
- why it worked so well with Brexit and Trump. Throw in stupidity and hunger for a vote of protest (as opposed to voting for something you genuinely believe in)fadein11
- and the process is pretty much screwed from the outset.fadein11
- and let's not forget Cambridge Analytics didn't just work the data, they also came up with some of the key campaign soundbytes used by the Dotard.fadein11
- sounds like CA were doing their job, thenGnash
- Oh yes, they delivered.fadein11

Facebook is juts a big RSS reader with family members and friends posts mixed with the rest.
- good way to look at it.plash
- < This 100%kona
- The newsfeed used to be ok in the first few years of FB, but especially in the last year it's just a bunch of ads. Worse is it's different if you refresh.shapesalad
- You do a refresh and then your friends post is now a 10 scrolls down, and newsfeed is in a weird order. Full of shite ads too.shapesalad
- I blocked all my families.pango
- Even my mother uses a fake name on FB.
<img src="roll-safe.jpg" alt="Facebook can't give out your personal information if they don't have your personal info">soundofreason - ^ not the case; they have info of people who don't even have an FB account. They scrub data from FB accounts' phone contacts!Krassy
- yes, cute, naive and true, but it's also collecting their personal details and selling it to marketers, which an RSS feed doesn't domonospaced
