This guy is not fit for politics at all.
- He and Bezos would be the fucknut Centrist wonder-ticket.face_melter
- That's probably true but I think Bezos would eat this kids head at the table.sted
- I disagreemonospaced
- He was well prepared but at some questions he can't improvise. And they constantly interrupt his answers and some of the information gets lost.sted

What's really the difference between something like Facebook and something like QBN for example...
QBN is the real big brother who wants to take over the world and take over our lives... as far as I can tell.

fuck facebook. really.
the other day i received some spam from the bush hall, an event venue in west london. they were advertising an 80s themed NYE bash, seemed really cheesy, and i forwarded the email to my wife as a joke, with some sarcastic comment.
a few days later i got a message via instagram that i had 'liked' the event on my facebook page.
the facebook page is under my hans_glib moniker. i haven't logged into the account for years - i can't even remember the login details anymore. up till the other day the last entry was "i think it's time to quit facebook." after some auto-report of buying candles or celery or some such inanery.
so somehow facebook has taken the action of forwarding an email under one name and turned it into a (totalluy unwarranted) "like" on an account in a different name.
if that isn't properly sinister, what is?

- The likelihood that it never deletes profiles , keeping them as well as speculative guesses as 'shadow accounts' so that EVERYONE is tracked, member or not?detritus

Facebook paranoia
Talking on the phone with a contractor for the first time about our new office. Now I'm getting construction and real estate ads on fbook. I began to swear, because it's a brand new phone, and i started using messenger this month again since 2014. I start to get nervous and decide to uninstall all zuckerberg products from the phone.wait a fucking minute, wifi / cellular data is turned off
- SmartPhones are essentially corporate eves droppers. As for Alexa. Yikes.monoboy
- Wait. You were FB messaging construction companies too though right? It's not from your phone calls?Hayzilla
- Also despite being a new phone you were obviously communicating with them before so it'll be data assigned to your account not phone.Hayzilla
- just one single phone call, my partner handles this stuff but he wasn't available.
first time talking to this guy...sted - i usually get tech related ads and some crap, and when i opened the fuckbook it offered me roofing, door installation, and house cleaning services :Dsted

A recently fired Facebook data scientist wrote a lengthy memo detailing the tech giant's failures to stop election interference in countries around the world, per a Buzzfeed report.
The employee, whose job was to find "inauthentic activity," wrote that the company was slow to take action against fake accounts used to manipulate political outcomes in nations like India, Ukraine, Bolivia, and many more.
Instead, Sophie Zhang wrote Facebook prioritized its public image in choosing which fake networks to investigate, even if the "disproportionate impact" of real-world problems would go ignored.
The report is the latest example of Facebook's long-standing struggle to stop the spread of misinformation and election interference and to prioritize content moderation on its platform.

- He went out with a bang!utopian
- ffs utopian. "McNutt suffered from PTSD'tank02
- Not sure why I read that, or why you linked it. No benefit. Anyway - he killed himself in front of his Mother? Fuck him then.Nairn
- This is sad, definitely. RIP. But, on the other hand it’s also fucking brutal to kill yourself in front of your friends and family.nb
- Facebook Inc loves this shit, as well as the millions of Russian Botsutopian
- Fuck You Facebook!utopian

- Yeah, I didn't need to see this at all.face_melter
- If this guy was in his right mind he would not have killed himself. Judging him for doing it in front of family is heartlessGnash
- ^ Exactly Gnash. I think the horror for family members seeing it remotely and not being able to do anything will haunt them for generations.PhanLo
- Have to agree with gnash 100% on thatfadein11
- I'm a fairly big supporter of one's right to suicide - and I don't think you necesarily need to be of 'right mind' (condescending?) to choose to do it.Nairn
- Desperation can be internalised and you write a note and fuck off to the woods to do it, alone. Doing it like this is.. well, I'm not going to waste time on it.Nairn
- If I'm being generous, i'd suggest he'd had a bit too much to drink and wasn't coherent. So, yeah - another win for the right to own guns.Nairn
- nngh "and I don't think you necesarily need NOT be of 'right mind' to do it". ffs.Nairn
- Sitting here calmly deciding how you would end your own life isn’t quite the situation he was in, though. People don’t rationally choose to die this wayGnash
- I might perhaps have considered things in greater detail elsetimes. He spent an hour online drinking and looking for attention.
He had it in mind, I suspect.Nairn - Sad.
