Facebook.

I really don’t know what to make of the Facebook saga. I use it to keep in touch with old friends I never meet any other way. Over the years I have been aware of being targeted. If I’ve looked for something on Amazon, lots of similar objects arrive on my FB page. I have never responded to any of these.
I am told about people and events happening in Truro...so they use our geographical position to try to get our interest.
It’s all very worrying but I’m still using it.
My main beef is the way they have taken over the games apps. If I want to use an old game played for years I am now invited to play via Facebook. The photo that appears on these apps is my FB pic.
Clearly they have been very busy developing their own image too.
The political pieces are very anti Trump and always enjoyable to read.
So far I’ve not heard of anything damaging to me or anyone else.
I have used their quizzes, answered questions about my views and preferences..so someone somewhere might know a lot about me...
I get regular friend requests from handsome, bronzed blokes from other countries. I refuse them all.
The friends on FB are all people I know.
So although I hear all the complaints about Mark Zuckerberg I am not yet willing to pull out..
More details will emerge I expect. I shall read them with interest. How much we all as individuals might suffer intrusions into our WiFi lives has yet to be established...
Waiting in order to see.....
