Policymakers may be able to change Facebook, but after the Cambridge Analytica scandal, Congress proved ineffective at asking the right questions, ultimately not knowing how to protect the billions of Facebook's users.
Given the unique state of our planet right now, and the ways in which 2020 has forced humans to examine the way we treat one another, I cannot in good conscience recommend Facebook to anybody.
OneTonyOnly I quit after the 2016 election. Yes, I miss knowing what's happening with far-flung friends, but I've adapted back to where I was before Facebook. It was just insanely toxic and I can't support their inaction and *promotion* of ideals I hold as antithetical to democracy.
I quit Facebook years ago. Fantastic decision. Highly recommended.
The guy owns the fck!n internet. Give me a list of what to quit.
“Policing accuracy of information is a moral issue”. They are a platform for other people to provide opinions not to generate them on their own w editorial content. Why isn’t the answer to speech more speech? Twitter “fact check”’d an opinion the other day.
FAKEBOOK......is for suckers!!!
afneil There has never been a better time to bring back the Spanish inquisition
I deleted mine this week because of all of the hate & inequality, but you just convinced me to turn it back on to protect my free speech - thank you!
afneil talked about this last wkend; older Sis helps kids in an affluent part of Hants, abused kids with big problems.She says FB is now a real concern & a source of criminal abuse & despite requests from police & authorities FB won’t help. She’s left fb, but says that’s harder for kids
Wow, I did this a couple days ago as well as get rid of apps that needs Facebook to log in. I feel good about it, too much bad energy associated with Facebook.
I really would like to see all of the folks from Business Insider that actually quit Facebook instead of posting these kinds of articles
It will become like MySpace eventually. Most people can’t even remember it.
Quit years ago and never looked back
yesterday was a better time
afneil Quit months ago, never looked back
After whats going on in this world there has never been a better time to delete Facebook.🙃
afneil My sentiments exactly. I left last month.
afneil Agree with many others here. Quit non-censoring Facebook for Chinese-run TikTok or Orwellian Twitter that suspended Titania McGrath yesterday? On yer bike.
afneil 4 years ahead of you there 🙂
I did that already two weeks ago.
afneil Это важный для меня пост
afneil If you know how you use it, it's great! Most haven't a clue.
Why I can't access the website?
Will Facebook allow you though?
Classic, when so many small & large businesses, including the are relying on Facebook Everybody is entitled to an opinion, including Mark Zuckerberg.
Quit mine 6 months ago... best decision ever!
Done. Quit 15 days ago.
What happened to freedom of speech? And why should we let one company decide what is truth or not? That’s fucking dangerous, if you believe in America, Facebook is the better company!
So go to Instagram for DIY videos of craftsmen building tables and roasting steaks in the wilderness? I think NOT.
He's an Idiot
It's amusing that the people who want to make the system as democratic as possible because they believe in the masses so much are the same people who believe the masses are too stupid to find the truth and need to be spoon fed information.
afneil I don't use any social media to consume information. I downloaded an app that blocks certain words so my facebook is pretty much cat videos pics of friends and updates about my friends lives. Much nicer.
afneil Does anyone know whether you need an active Facebook account to be able to continue using what’s app?
There has never been a better time to quit following BI 😉
There has mever been a great time to leave behond biased media hypocrites specialinterests lol
afneil Twitter spreads more hate tbf
afneil 'It's the responsibility of media companies to ensure the information on their site is good information'..'good'?. I 'd rather hear the original and make up my own mind, rather than 'The Ministry of Truth' 's version.
Always thought Mark Zuckerberg was way over-rated. He developed an online directory and suddenly he's a genius.
Social media agencies cutting ties 👀 United they stand. Divided they'll fall.
Luckily the last time I’m on Facebook is 2017. Been an active user here since then.
afneil I applaud Zuckerberg for once. I was thinking of leaving Facebook but am staying because he's standing up for free speech. Facebook
afneil Hear! Hear! Or, you can download Wibl to arrange to meet up with your friends. In the park, for now, obvs! Wiblme BeSocial
afneil There's never been a better time to quit all social media. Twitter is an absolute cesspool at the moment and has been for at least the last 12 months.
afneil Facebook is a dream come true for trolls. Zuckerberg is downright evil with his never-ending shows of contrition followed by never-ending excuses for doing nothing. It will undoubtedly feature prominently in interference in the November elections.
afneil Nice of them to say. I'm not on it. Am sure it serves a purpose for many............... just not me.
afneil Deleted my Facebook about 3 years ago. It's even worse than Twitter for issuing bans to subdue free speech.
Instead of Quit Facebook, Quit cancel culture 😉
afneil Agreed!!! Delete FB and move to Messenger, WhatsApp or Instagram now!
Why don`t you quit twitter ?
afneil I just did exactly that today.
afneil Freedom of speech........as long as I agree with what you're saying.
DumpFacebook
Wasn’t that like 15 years ago ?
First, Facebook is social media, not media. Secondly, are you really going to promote TikTok? They gather user data and send it to China and turn a blind eye to sex predators.
afneil Logged out nearly two weeks ago not going back
afneil I shut mine down nearly two years ago. I haven’t missed it.
afneil I quit mine in the New Year. Frankly, seeing an endless stream of attention seeking hospital check-ins and Karen's who I haven't seen since I left school posting pictures of slop they are serving up to their family is enough of a reason to delete your account.
These Facebook employees quitting are forgetting about the unemployment rate. Their jobs will be filled with ease.
afneil Shut mine down 10 years ago.
I have been thinking of deleting it. I barely use Facebook now.
afneil No one I know under 30 posts on Facebook for anything other than for huge life events. I think it’ll be a dead platform in a couple of years
Did it just as the rumors of cv19 really started to pick up steam. Noped right tf outta there.
I deleted mine yesterday!
afneil You just gave me a reason to join
quitfacebook nytimes CNN washingtonpost
Exactly.. My account suspended for 4 months now.. I think ill leave it like that Facebook has stolen elections over the globe by selling your habits to those willing to pay and sell you fake News. YOU ARE THE PRODUCT.. Wake up please folks.
afneil
