At some point in the near future there will be more dead Facebook users than living ones.

You can leave a digital version of yourself after death -- provided you are not "weeded" by the next generation of the woke.

The lightbulb suddenly went on in the MSM's consciousness.

You mean it "wasn't fighting back" as George Friedman notes, "the United States is shifting from military to economic warfare."
Whether you agree with it or not; regard is as necessary or dangerous, a strategic revolution took place after November, 2016. It happened largely without open debate because the media was reluctant to acknowledge it and that is the most tragic aspect of it.

It's not 'undermining' but rather fake democracy. The new tactic in hybrid warfare is for strongmen to make dictatorship look like democracy.
Politicians have learned the art of making war in secret and tyrannizing in secret. Low observable technology goes beyond stealth airplanes.
Ordinary people are losing the political arms race against their rulers. Digital manipulation, mass surveillance and individual targeting have tipped the scales against publics that rely on traditional protest tactics like marches and rallies.

You would think #facebook would not take money from a dangerous cult with a history of violence that fantasizes about the death of prominent democrats, government officials and celebrities. You would be dead wrong though. Facebook ads for the Qanon conspiracy:
Anon Sculptures....🤪

1. @ANewman_forward and I have a piece in the @FT, on #Facebook and privacy, building on our brand new book, Of Privacy and Power amzn.to/2TWwVWi. Short version - the reason why Facebook is pushing for privacy law goes back to @Snowden revelations. ft.com/stream/ec33ce8…
2. There's a new narrative about Facebook's embrace of #GDPR (@alexstamos gives one recent version of it) - that GDPR is good for companies like Facebook, because it is complex and easier for big companies to comply with than small upstart competitors. Not altogether wrong,
3. but not really right either. Facebook's ginger embrace of European style legislation is making lemonade out of lemons. Zuckerberg would surely have preferred a world with no privacy legislation, where companies were left to self regulate, and market mechanisms predominated.

Another bad day for #Facebook: Psych researcher Aleksandr Kogan who helped #CambridgeAnalytica mine private data from 87 million Facebook users sues FB for defamation. Almost a year to the day since we first learned of the massive privacy breach scandal, which FB blamed on Kogan.

The UK parliament looks to have lost its moral backbone.
Power is clung on to like a precious ring, and at any cost.
Bungs are pocketed, impropriety is rife even corruption passes unnoted.
How did it come to this?

We are a Nation that has been consciously divided.
#Leave <Divide and conquer> #Remain
While elites polarize opinion alonge tribal lines they can guarantee support despite misdemeanors that would not pass the scrutiny of a united populace or parliament.
Whatever the final result come 29/03/2019 the division will remain and will be used for political/personal/financial advantage for years to come.
Sadly I don't see how the country will ever be whole again any time in the near future and beyond.
Here is why....

Facebook has some really creepy plans!
Just check their patents!
Small thread with thanks to @jashkenas 👇

1⃣ Facebook wants to track your eye movements
using special infrared LEDs that shine into your pupil & cornea to determine gaze patents.google.com/patent/US20180… #Facebook #privacy
Facebook wants to reads your comments for positive or negative “affinity scores”
to generate sentiments and “trust scores”
and use the resulting data sets from trusted users
to train a machine learning model
patents.google.com/patent/US20180… | #privacy #facebook
to manipulate people..
3⃣ Facebook wants to “automatically sense, record and identify all types of activities such as walking, running, jogging, cycling, rowing, driving with car, bus, train, walking stairs, jumping, swimming, playing football & skiing” patents.google.com/patent/US20150… | #Facebook #privacy
