Facebook’s promise was to create a more open and connected world. FRONTLINE finds that multiple warnings about the platform’s negative impact on privacy and democracy were eclipsed by Facebook’s relentless pursuit of growth.

FRONTLINE PBS | Official i'm from Chile a far country i m know a little bit of english but if you can upload the spanish subs..please!!
Facebook turns a blind eye to certain groups posting racist garbage on their site, yet will ban those that speak against such racism on false "hate speech" claims.
THAT tells me FB is controlled by the racists!
It's not a dilemma, it's a monopoly - USA has laws about that. Innovation can not be strangled by the big players - it's harmful to the economy.
@@redbaron474 Taxpayer funded left-wing propaganda...NPR and PBS need to go....This is true STATE RUN NEWS!!!
@@mytube8943 If you're trying to claim these are lies.... OPEN YOUR EYES. If anything, this barely scratches the surface of all the f***ery going on with fakebook!
I deleted my Facebook account 3 years ago. Best thing I ever did. I actually started reading again
It doesn’t seem like a dilemma to me at all. I left FB August 1st and haven’t looked back. I don’t miss anything about it. I feel like I’ve gotten clean from an addiction & my mind is finally my own again. FB is toxic! It’s toxic personally, interpersonally, socially, politically...etc
I miss the days when Facebook was just me and my college friends sharing photos from trips. Long before the Karen’s and Ken’s took over and brought their cake recipes and government conspiracy theories with them.
Same don’t miss it at all
@@juanrocha4333 well you still have a Google account, so you're still a product no matter what data company's app or site you're logged into and using.
But it limited your social network. Why give in to them?
My life is ten times more productive sense I deleted my Facebook account over 6 years ago. I have some kick ass hobbies, and life is good without social media. I'm a millennial so I still use RUclips for watching documentaries, because KNOWLEDGE is POWER.
Google owns RUclips and Google has more information on you than you want to know...
@@americancitizen748 ok
Social media splits by gender. Facebook is largely female, RUclips largely male.
@@GreenFurnNW It does, ever wonder why after you buy something online or even google search something, suddenly all the ads on the side are related to that search or purchase? Coincidence? Nope.
Deleated account almost 2 months ago. Do not miss it one bit.
You don't have to post your life to social media. It's an endless nightmare. You wake up from the nightmare after deleting social media.
You said it! I just don't understand the people who wake up and start posting everything they do, breakfast, naps, lunch, random thoughts, aargh, is a never ending spam. I remember feeling like professor X when he couldn't shut down all the voices in his head. I finally got cured and I'm feeling better than ever
@@fixer1140 we all create our own hell . now own it . stop wining and blameing facebook. try to help fix facebook , or sit back , and shut the fuck up .
You can't just "delete social media" as well as the "social media" can't and won't delete your data. You are the product and you will always be one...
Facebook is so criminal, corrupt & FOS it's ridiculous. Nowadays or ever since the 2016 presidential election facebook has really been on a heavy censorship crusade censoring any & everything that might be informative to the uninformed as far as the status quo is concerned. But to hide this they use a so-called "community standard" policy to block out what THEY (not you) might feel is unacceptable. In other words they think for you without GAF of how you might see it. That right there is a violation of people rights. Why would they take it upon themselves to restrict things that's posted when there's already certain controls that the individual can use to filter out post that maybe offensive to them (& not 'facebook admins')??? They'll even restrict fb users for post that was posted way before they even put the policy in place & then will give you no option or opportunity to dispute the violation.
Another thing people can do is get others to watch last year's very important Facebook whistle blower Francis Haugen's testimony against them .
She says they are evil and definitely have an agenda
I deleted my Facebook and Twitter accounts, canceled Amazon Prime membership.
If you don't have a seat a the table, your probably on the menu.
And if it's free, you are the product.
Ha.
Indeed.
No Seat beats No SHow.
Yip
You're, not your, you goddamn idiot!
There’s a real irony to us criticizing Facebook, from our google accounts.
I think that is coincidental.
Well said. It's contradictory... Just turn it off and stop yelling...
@@RockBrentwood wtf are talking about?
If it is the same irony of writing a book about the environment then I see none.
FakeBook, TheirTube, Twittsrrs - they ban speech from minority groups, political factions they disagree with, those they have deemed 'unworthy' - this is completely UnAmerican. Free Speech for all allows for open discussion and dialog of important subjects, and to silence the opinions of the minorities is both unfair and unequal.
I never got a Facebook account. I always thought putting my heart and soul on a billboard was a bad idea no matter what the reason.
The closer people are to nature, hiking, swimming, playing volleyball or whatever, the happier they feel in general. They easily fall in love with other person, in nature, during summer, on the beach or in forests, while playing sports etc. It's not superficial short-term love.... I recommend watching some older movies of 60´s how people behaved and they didn't need plastic surgeries etc. .. It may inspire you... and it may teach the teenagers who didn't experience it, or didn't experience the summer in nature etc.
I bet Todd has a Facebook account lol.
@@alaalfa8839 Ala Alfa I agree with a lot of what you're saying but they did have facelifts and some other forms of plastic surgery back in the 60s such as chin implants and nose jobs ... in fact it's been proven that early on Marilyn Monroe had something done to her nose and her chin .
But yes the cosmetic surgery stuff has gotten out of hand and people seem to be insane nowadays .
To seek the kind of lengths people go to you can even watch the Lorry Hill Channel .
Im starting to believe social media is the worst invention for mankind!
They let it be used for evil.
FB = DARPA project lifelog!!
The day the pentagon pulled the plug on project lifelog 4 februari 2004 is the SAME day FB started!!
They pulled the plug on lifelog as the government could NOT find a way to rule over the privacy LAW. They wanted ALL your information LOGGED!!
So they created the NERD Marc to push FB to have what they ALWAYS wanted!! Your DATA - ALL of OUR data!!
If something is FREE, YOU are the product!!
AI is the most dangerous , when Robots learn to teach themselves and or used for evil!
They must be regulated immediately !
Don’t let big tech define what the inventions of the internet. Everything in it is truly remarkable.
Facebook is like fire.
When a teen, about 1997, the 60-something year old owner of the gas station I was working at told me about how he didn't believe the internet was all the great as he saw plenty of evidence of misinformation being spread. He had an example of something he'd personally witnessed and then read a false account of. I think that was the first criticism I heard of the internet age. Man, did it turn out to be prescient.
Yeah, but we all know it... we know how to know things and it's not surprising to me that people are now trying to blame social media for broadcasting things that make us uncomfortable... we do the same to the media when they are showing us what others say and do... and then blame the messenger for how we process that info in our brains... people are just dumb. Esp those who think there is a boogieman they have to blame for their own fears... like eating babies and drinking blood.. that shit has gone on forever -- We used to sit in Electronics class in 10th grade and listen to albums backwards because it was supposed to be satanic... just taught me how easily people could be led.
I never used it I have Kagen water making the best water and going to the Library
Caring about privacy.... the BIG LIE.
Can't buy into people getting into this AT ALL. Somehow. Who am I though?
If you're in the US, your government re-allowed your ISPs to sell your browsing history, and you're worried about privacy on social media?
If you want to know just how evil Facebook is you can look at last year's Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen's testimony about them and she says they definitely are evil and have an agenda .
She was also on CBS 60 minutes
Amen
Amen to that
Facebook reminds me of the mad scientist who created Frankenstein & how he lost control of his project as it escaped his laboratory & terrorized everyone in the village...
Great parallel 👏👏👏
said it perfectly. Started off as connecting with friends all over the nation. Lure, and turned into a different beast.

Looks like a robot!
Agree! I think Mark is probably scared. He didn’t know his creation would grow this much and have this much impact. Now he’s afraid to admit it’s grown too large and it’s out of his control. Like a monster.
I've never seen one person say they've deleted their FB and regretted it.
i deleted my facebook 2 months ago after having it for 9 years and it has been the best choice i have ever made.
Time to boycott these fuckers. We miss Tom from myspace.
...it's not deleted. FB is forever. Everything you have ever done on the internet is still somewhere.
Deleting fb is not easy you need google to access it
I deleted fb and Google 6 years ago. Never missed it!
Never joined and everyone made fun of me. Who’s laughing now?
Facebook has been intentionally deceptive.
you liberals and your false flags.
ABSOLUTELY!
the very definition of a corporation (limited liability), logically implies that those who run it will be intentionally deceptive when given the opportunity
and so have their users. THAT'S the issue really. People who want to hide and then claim they are exercising their "Free Speech". Stand-up and be counted or remain irrelevant and open to every scammer in existence. The thieves know people are too damn paranoid to post what they do if they are verified, and they take advantage of this. They work to provide what looks like a safe harbor which is nothing of the sort. Facebook is nothing more than a massive profit-driven data-mining operation. It accomplishes this because most of the users could care less about their Fourth Amendment Rights.
No, Facebook is what it has always been: A money-making, data-driven machine. Only retards get their information from Facebook.
Joined in 2009, left permanently in 2019. Time to enjoy my life again without comparing it to other people! Best decision of the new decade so far!
Ive never compared it to anyone. However I HAVE A PROBLEM WITH SILENCING SOMEONE'S OPINION NO MATTER HOW FOUL
This year is four years since I left Facebook, it was the ultimate bad relationship.
I haven't been on in over six years that I don't miss them either .
But I do wish everybody would look for last year's Facebook whistleblower Frances Haugen's testimony against them and she says they are evil and definitely have an agenda .

FB is far worse than YT. YT has lots of positive things one can use to improve themselves example..tutorial videos, documentaries, travel blogs.
i quit fb for a year bc of their lack of security. i just "celebrated" my 10th "anniversary" with them. As someone who STILL can't use much of fb, bc of the "View As token exploit", i'm about to delete my entire acct.
Yep. Same.
Thats because you were aadicted to it. Moderation and self-control is key when going into anything.
MrRadical916 ok sir we get it. Youre a tough guy.
I can't wait until they talk about the RUclips algorithm next, if they haven't already
YT is as insane as FB, the censorship in this platform is like that in FB, this platform does not leave you to grow if you have a channel, they decide who must succeed and mostly the idiots are the ones who are more suppoted by YT, if you block their publicity so you are an enemy to silence.
this channel is owned by amazon
@@RodrigoSahagun Use "Unhook youtube" from Chrome... You may watch youtube but without the recommendations.
Yes.
@@RodrigoSahagun facts
"I deleted my Facebook years ago and it was the best thing I ever did." But thank goodness I have this huge platform to offer my unsolicited opinion to all of you.
I think the one thing everything agrees on is that Frontline is doing a great job on these documentaries. Well presented and thoroughly researched.

I can't remember if they did one last year or not on the woman who was the Facebook whistleblower who testified against Facebook and she talks about how evil Facebook really is
Hit like if you've deleted the facebook app
Hope you get millions of likes.
haven't gone to f/b in many months and was there very little to begin with. not sure i know how to get off it?
I was thinking my account, but yes from the phone too.
Deleting it today or tomorrow actually...just need to message people that I'm on MINDSdotCOM now. Although I can't put the actual link because Facebook blocked me thru messenger telling my mom my new social media address and blocked me labeling it as ABUSIVE. Its ABUSIVE to give my mom my contact info when it points to a FREE SPEECH Social Media site like MINDSdotCOM.
Also THIS PLACE HERE blocks the SHARE LINKS to THIS PLACE from MINDSdotCOM. I have to use code words because YOOTOOB will see keywords and block them thru Algorithms.
my phone came with Facebook -_-
Less on Facebook these days, I am actually happier.
It's such a relief to not think about social media!
You are R8. Same as me :)
Same here,
The way Mark spoke while sweting shows that he was really afraid to be asked the question on privacy...
and the tragedy being there is only 1 person incharge of privacy having an experience of only 9 months ..this shows how much facebook cares about privacy
How is Frontline consistently so good?
Pff. More like how is frontline consistently late on issues 😒
energyeternal Riiiiiight?! Ugh! 😍
How is Frontline & PBS consistently so corporate & so late
as opposed to your being no sided, fuckface.
You mean how is Frontline using Republican tax money to act as a Democratic propaganda factory?
I never joined facebook for precisely this reason.
even if you didnt join fb has a shadow profile of you, youll see in part 2
Google owns RUclips and Google tracks your online activities. Same boat...
That's rad
Deb , thought I was the only one w/of FB
You can join it. Just use a fake identity, and have a dedicated browser for it. Something like Brave. When you shop use another browser... So on.
Never been on Facebook, I always loved my privacy.
Me To! As I knew FB = DARPA project Lifelog... So NaH Not on my watch lol
Me To !
If there's no online school, I'm probably free from Facebook since the start of quarantine.
You have no hope of privacy because government agencies have access to your data to persecute you.
I may sound crazy but find out for yourself.
yeah i don’t see myself on social media too much longer it has completely stripped us of our privacy, detached us from reality while distorting our realities, and has ultimately done more harm than good! it’s kinda crazy that as a society we are judged by how many views we get, how many likes/followers we have etc. it’s incredibly insane that a talentless influencer can receive 20k per photo but a teacher with multiple degrees and certifications is scraping by and/or has weekend jobs? it’s unreal
lol at all the people saying they deleted their Facebook account: there is no such thing. You simply de-activate your access to the information you've already provided to them, but your information still stays there; it's never deleted.
you can request it is deleted
Nevertheless, it sucks. They're evil
I deleted my Facebook account. And I don't regret it a single bit!
PS. It wasn't easy to do though. No, not easy because I couldn't decide. It wasn't easy because they don't make it easy to find how to do it. I had to Google it and then copy and paste a special URL into my web browser's address bar because there's absolutely no easy way you can click a button on the Facebook site itself to completely delete your account. They try to trick you into deactivating it, which is not the same as deleting it for good. So wouldn't it qualify FB as a virus?
Sexy!!!
That's the damn trith
I remember when I deactivated my account back in 2011 and on the way out it made me answer like probably 20+ questions why are you leaving? And so on lol
They know if they make it hard enough.. most wont go
You say it's deleted.....its still there....just paused.
I think the RUclips algorithm brought this video into my feed because chrome likely spied me watching "The Social Dilemma" recently.
This ain't no damm dilemma. It's a straight up Technocratic Coup. Frontline strikes again sugarcoating the truth.
For me the interesting thing now is the dialogue between "identity specific" Facebook and "anonymous" Reddit. People clearly WANT social media in some form, it's just a question of how private we want to be while we use it.
My old classmates thought I had died because I wasn’t on Facebook. They wanted to know what had happened to me!
Sad.
Why didn't they just pick up the phone if they were concerned? It's so sad how distant people have become with each other. No need for a pandemic for that.
Same here Lisa, l will never be on FB, never.
same here.
Having had an education in computer programming and network engineering I have always been amazed at how everyone complained about privacy yet they give all of their personal information to Facebook... 🤔
A dream come true for hackers and identity thieves.
yeah...you guys are gonna have to update this one for us in the US of A. amazing investigative work as always guys ❤️
I deleted my facebook years ago, I hated it, it made me feel so disconnected to everyone, yet so absolutely vulnerable. I realized this at age 14, and it's weirdly validating to know I've dodged a huge bullet. This site is still a trap in itself though... But it's got educational content :/

That was very smart of you to realize that early on ... it didn't take me long either to realize there was something not right with Facebook and it really does engender a lot of narcissism and also lying .
Too bad everybody didn't watch last year's Facebook whistleblower Francis Haugen's testimony against Facebook where she talks about how evil they are and they definitely have an agenda .
I don't know if Frontline did a piece on her but she was also on CBS 60 Minutes
Great.. why don't you do a documentary on Google also? Regarding privacy issues etc
"Make things happen and apologize later", just tells u that guy's philosophy
I'm so glad that last year Facebook whistleblower Francis Haugen testified against Facebook saying how evil they are and that they definitely have an agenda .
I think she was also on CBS 60 minutes but I wish more people would watch what she said and share it with others .
Facebook started by stealing a model or business idea so what do we expect moving forward. The morals of the company is already questionable to begin with.

A friend of my mine told me in 2011, that FB destroys people’s lives. I looked at her in shock, and wished I learned about its social effects on people’s lives before I created my account in 2010.
yo me lo hice por esos años y no era como hoy en dia
very true.
I am no longer on social media. With the information I provided I allowed myself to be prey for scammers and opinions of vile people.
When your finally free of Instagram and Facebook you realize it was an addiction.
Never understood why people loved Facebook so much.
Why would anyone want to talk to old classmates? Yuck.
Didn't want to talk to them when I was actually in high school.
What is interesting is the way PBS comes down on this now. Way to go five years late
I give a comment. I am profiled. Google owns RUclips. Google is profiling me just as Facebook.
@@laturista1000 and thus the entire problem, too many blurryfaces. The Ruling Elites WANT people rendered to the status of an irrelevant number. One they can control and milk without any standing. Without verified identities, ones which can be defended in a court of Law, the abuse will continue. The problems in this very Documentary will grow. The answer is not more hiding it is coming back to reality.
If you're referring to the fact that people are overexaggerating their 'contributions' and 'safety,' I agree. People, they don't link your name to your key words posted and broadcast them to advertisers. You have control on what you post. You pay NOTHING other than the data you input into their platform. Facebook is a great platform for zero cost, and sorry, your data by itself is worth nothing lol.
Absolutely agree.
@🧠 cells I'm pretty sure Google calls it a recommend algorithm.
You win.
Left Facebook and Instagram years ago. My life isn't stress free, but now I don't have to worry about being misled by fake news or feeling down because my life compared to others isn't as exciting.
I absolutely love Frontline! You guys always have great content and very watchable documentaries. This one showed up randomly in a youtube feed and I wouldnt have watched it if Frontline was not at the helm.
gotta love when people CHOOSE to believe the misinformation then point fingers at others when theyre proven wrong.
I was on FB for nearly ten years. Dumped my account about a week after viewing this, in October 2018, and haven't looked back.
They knew exactly what they were doing, and they still do!

VOLUNTARY ACTION To CLEAN THE WORLD OF EVIL. PLAY GAMES FOR 24hrs HOURS WHILE WE CLEAN
When I hear the gentleman's voice who narrates Frontline, I usually start paying attention. His voice is synonymous with "very interesting documentaries" full of shocking details, mysteries, but mostly surprising back-stories we didn't know but find fascinating.
I agree, it's intriguing.
"Something is fundamentally wrong with FB's algorithms."
So, so true
Designed to tailor the things you like to make your life more full.... hahahahahah -- that is the reality of it. The guys sitting around tinkering with this had no idea.... but they do now.
Another good documentary PBS! I never gets bored to finish no matter how long the content is. Worth of everybody's time to learn more.
Facebook should be held accountable. Immediately. The damage that was done to the whole world through their platform could have been avoided if they were tiny little bit responsible. This is totally unacceptable.
3 yrs out of Facebook and I couldn't be happier.. I pity those who cannot go a day without checking how many likes they got.. The world is a more interesting place without social media.
This segment of Frontline explains why every time I download a game from Google store I can't go into bonus mode unless I agree to go on Facebook and compete in that game in facebook against other users.
Thank you FRONTLINE. You guys rock. I am looking forward to part two.
FB is like the bar where the people go because that's where the people are. That bar always gets arrogant, because they think the people are there for the bar.
All people need for their friends is an open source message board.
I'm astonished by the immaturity of people using fb,as I once was bold to say that my mistakes were incredibly demising to me and the lack of maturity was very embarassing.

I've had a Facebook since 2005 when you had to have a college email to sign up. I definitely was addicted to it sometimes like being heavily involved in groups that met up in real life and turned into long lasting friendships and lots of drama, I couldn't get enough. Now I just use it cuz I'm bored or wanna talk to my less than 200 friends and family about whatever is going on. I love Facebook, I am not nearly as attached to it as I used to be but I'd be devastated to lose my account cuz of all the irreplaceable pics of my daughter and mom who I just lost a month and a week ago.
You need to save those pics asap
I cannot understand posting personal information on FB. Years ago, people bought diaries with locks on them to maintain privacy. Now, they voluntarily post everything for all to see.
I shared this Video on Facebook.
Beware its gotta censure it.
Hahaha. Great idea 💡. Keep sharing to make the world better place
Share d also.
😂😂😂
Colonel Mustard...been dun...betta KETCHUP!
Since my awakening began about 4 yrs ago, I spent progressively less time on FB. Something that once made me feel good started to make me feel uneasy, and eventually FB started making me feel physically ill.... my "vibe" was being "infected". So one day I stopped visiting the site. Now I dont go on at all....I think I've only been on three times in two years, and those times were to mourn lost friends. I feel SOOOO much better without FB.
Fb isnt the issue, how we use it and what we seek is the issue. Just like alcohol.
This is what happens when you give Geeks too much power Lmao
at times I had wondered what i was missing by not being on any of the social media sites....now i know for sure.. I MISSED NOTHING..
We all must step away from Facebook towards a platform that has a sense of ethics.
"a platform with a sense of ethics" Good luck finding that
We may not have another option now which is why I don't use facebook. But you don't think humans can create a social platform with a higher motive than profits? I am a little more optimistic.
It needs to be regulated like land line phones and the US postal system is regulated. Nobody decided what you could say to your cousin on a landline or blocked comments. If a US postal delivery person tampered with a paper envelope that has a Valentine card inside he could go to prison for the rest of his life for felony mail tampering.
I'm good with that solution. In the meantime, let's stay off their platform -- they clearly cannot regulate themselves and the consequences are becoming incresingly dire.
and so it worked. People shared a lot of love. Not on FB they don't share love.
Deleted mine today
You might think you've deleted the last iteration of that facebook profile,but think again. It hangs on to you even dead folks can't get away.
Smart decision! I got off years ago.
2yrs ago . Playing with a bucket of shit is more productive than Fakebooking😒
You'll be back eventually.
I been off for 3 months. Although if you signed up with any other websites, sometimes you have to use Facebook to log on to those websites .
I must be the only one in the comments who still think social media has done more good than harm.
I deleted mine years ago. It was setup to mock women's looks in the first place. College men "rated" women. Unattractive men mocked young girls. Now anyone can go on and torment other people.
When frontline shows up at your door the scams over!
Excellent show. A clean, unbiased look at all side of this very complicated, heart-breaking situation...
two geniuses from Harvart, one from Penn State, the rest I am not sure about.
Chill peeps u don’t have to use Facebook

Nothing on the internet is private. All companies collect data. Be responsible with the information that you put online. Big brother is always watching.
Depends on how you use internet!!
PC with a good VPN is a must for the past 10 years LMFAO
I'm proud that I've never had a Facebook account.
The trouble with Facebook and Twitter is that it's easy to judge people and miss out on the good. People need the opportunity to censor themselves so we can get the best out of each other in different roles. Example: you and a friend may really enjoy movies and you get positivity from each other sharing a movie together, but they may also enjoy karaoke and you hate that. You may be less likely to connect at all because your mind will associate them with that thing you saw that divided you. Apply that to the seriousness of today and we can see we really need to stop creeping on each other. We can be united. Facebook doesn't help much in positive ways.
Facebook reminds me of a club that everybody used to go to and when you go back there's nothing but a couple of bar flies hanging around.
Like club E2 in Chicago everyone would go there...until all hell broke loose and ppl got killed...they shut it down.

Hes gay Zuckerberg racist im blocked again I can't post thanks Trump supporters you're losers January 20 2021 Trump last day
There’s a real irony to us criticizing Facebook, from our google accounts.
@@brentjames2576 they don’t block anyone who speaks against President Trump. They jail people who support him. So, they blocked you for other reasons. Don’t blame Trump supporters.
The key is to just either disbelieve or believe the opposite of anything you hear on the internet.
I’m not deleting fb. Why should we? I have 33 lifelong friends and that’s how we catch up and plan reunions and things. I quit posting though. Especially photos! I don’t have anything to hide?!
Until the Constitution says "right to privacy", nothing will change.
Europe's privacy laws protect the individual
47:30 Fb said “but we have an open policy, pro free speech”. That didn’t last did it.
agreed!
Well if you actually understood the problems addressed in the video, the issue is exactly because they had an open policy that allowed anyone to create fake accounts, spread false news, etc. Stop trying to select only specific facts that support your bias.
dachicagoan if you can accept not everyone is going to like your and a lot of people are just trolls
Then you will not consider so many hate speeches relevant or upsetting
Matt Orfalea so true only free speech if it aligns with the governments views
That there from Fb is not true.. They are racist, control freaks & very Double, Quadruple Standard that they are pathetic.. & these monitors and the Fb admins are wicked & nasty to put you quickly in their Fb prisonment punishments like you're a minor child.. Their a real waste of one's time of our lives.. Fb sucks!
I deleted my Facebook two months ago. Still detoxing it's like a drug 😬 Not good for us!
Welcome to the club. It takes a little bit of time, but you won't regret it. I bet that you sleep better now. In my case it was marvelous, no drama, no fights, no people beging for selfies, etc. My productivity skyrocketed and now I read more than ever. Do I miss fb? Not for a minute
How do you delete it?
*This always happen when inexperienced people full of energy ⚡but with no clarity of knowledge ends up doing things like this*
Have knowledge but not wisdom as Dr. Phil says....you wanted to say wisdom.
Who raised them?...... nobody...parents spend time at work, that they dont have energy for kids.....If nobody raised them (because capitalistic system abuses parents to work hard that they dont have time kids.
If then nobody raised them....Then, who is responsible? Nobody.... Except capitalistic system and political system and low income and high expensive rent etc..
This documentary is great. I wish that there was a visual representation--like diagram or powerpoint-type visual--section that showed exactly the way Facebook sends data to third parties, and the way Facebook receives data from third parties, and explain the arrangement of those data sharing relationships. I still don't fully understand how Facebook tracks your activity on the internet outside of Facebook--like your Google searches. And does this mean that all those third party folks, with data sharing agreements, are giving our data (like our offline purchases) to Facebook so that Facebook can then use it to target us? How does that work?

You don’t have to know how it works. Just look at the world today, listen to what this documentary is saying. The world is in chaos and Facebook, Amazon and Google etc. Are the ones who have created it. It has ruined lives all for the love of money and greed!
they used connectivity
more-often in days of yore🧂
It’s amazing how everyone hates on FB yet no one was forced to join.
The product sold and had a couple of billion users before they started tracking and selling personal data to third parties, who could then target you with adds.....and they did it without people knowing it.........and now it has become an insidious part of companies and people's lives that, in many cases, it is much more difficult and disruptive to disengage....the plan all along
What I hate about facebook is that they have made it impossible to completely delete your account if you decide you don't like it or trust it. You can't even call corporate office to have it done.
These apps are very addicting especially in the age of social distancing… but deleting them helps tremendously with time management. I deleted and redownloaded insta for 5 times. But now I don’t feel the need to be stuck on the app on hours anymore. Quitting social media takes time and effort. Also, I moved all of my chats with friends to other platforms.
Why would any adult still have a personal account with Facebook? Unless you are trying to advertise a business or organization, the risks are just not worth it.
l never even owned a computer, until 2009...when the factory where l had worked since 1986....was shut down. l realized l would HAVE to have a computer, just to even try & find another job. NEVER wanted one to begin with....because l KNEW l would become addicted to the damned thing. Made the mistake of joining Facebook.....1st thing.....to stay in contact with former co-workers and it took off from there.
I used it for just that, my business. It really helped me keep in contact with people but I ended up deleting my account because I could not support a company that is so deceptive and invasive. Not to mention, they don't even provide anything. We are the creators of the site
What risks? The risks of being advertised to? The risk of people talking to you?
They came from a hacker ethos,shouldnt some of them realize social engineering on a massive scale was possible?
I was on Facebook for all of three months. Then I realized what it was really all about as far as what I was giving up, privacy wise. That was all she wrote for me and Facebook. Folks, you've gotta start seeing what's going on with the big tech internet giants.
Love how the sign in front of the "Federal Trade Commission Building" at 36:02 includes the word "Building". As opposed to what- the "Federal Trade Commission Spaceship"??
I wish all those who believe technology makes the world a better place would remember this quote by Thomas Sowell: "There are no solutions. Only trade-offs."
Even solving some of the world's worst problems can come at the cost of creating new ones. The bigger the effect, the more careful the step forward should be.
After hearing Zuckerberg apologize AGAIN, for giving all my data to the Russians, AGAIN, I said "no more."
I haven't been on Facebook since 2012. Everyone that I know that still has their accounts still try to convince me to reopen my account or make excuses to keep it. Nope. I have completely opted out of Instagram, Twitter, and Tik Tok.
I'm so grateful for this channel.
