I've logged into my Facebook account out of sheer curiosity, and my god it's a wasteland. Ads, AI slop, hot takes from nobodies, the works. It is obviously designed to be as infuriating as possible, and qutting that digital landfill is the easiest thing ever.

I was one of the earliest adopters of Facebook, and also seemingly one of the earliest to bail out.

When the Cambridge Analytical scandal broke?

Nuked my entire account, at least, according to Facebook, who I'm totally sure doesn't just still have their own archive of me, because how the fuck would I know?

Basically everyone I knew thought I was literally insane for doing that at that time... I connected the dots and realized the true extent of what they could be, and we now know they were and are doing ... because I worked with databases and data analytics.

But nope, everyone thought I was nuts, and slept walked into the social apocalypse.

All you need to know about Facebook:

Zuck: yea so if you ever need info about anyone at harvard

Zuck: just ask

Zuck: i have over 4000 emails, pictures, addresses, sns

Friend: what!? how’d you manage that one?

Zuck: people just submitted it

Zuck: i don’t know why

Zuck: they “trust me”

Zuck: dumb fucks

I only used it to check a local thing (they don't have a website, just a fb) and my account was banned "for lurking and inactivity" and when I found out it was 180 days since automated ban, so I can't request my account back. 180 days since they did it because they shut down for renovation for a little bit and then it was summer so they were inactive then too. They didn't get banned, so I think they may have proven that they do indeed exist and that they are indeed important to facebook. I'm not able to go as often due to account removal.
