    Are normal people still on FB? I thought it would be all conservatives by now. If only conservatives are getting ripped off, then no harm done. I only care if actual humans are being harmed.

    Maybe facebook should be responsible for the monetary damages they create on society. + fines for negligence.

    The fact that something like Facebook exists without public oversight or control is absolutely insane … if your national public rely heavily on one source for the majority of the information and communication, what do you think is going to happen? Is like saying that there is only one company that owns every newspaper across the country and they are allowed to self regulate themselves.

    It’s like Joseph Goebbels said about media and communications ‘Think of the press as a great keyboard on which the government can play.’

    Except this time, we’ve allowed multinational corporations at the keyboard to play the music that we all dance to
