[kictanet] In Court, Facebook Blames Users for Destroying Right to Privacy

[Patrick A. M. Maina]

 "I freed a thousand slaves... I could have freed a thousand more, if only they knew they were slaves." - Harriet Tubman
"Until they become conscious, they will never rebel, and until they have rebelled they cannot become conscious." - George Orwell.

Facebook hacked people's minds and put them under a spell so powerful that they are completely impervious to reason. To defeat Facebook you have to focus on freeing minds. It's not a technology problem. I has never been.

Brgds,Patrick.

 Still trying to understand perceptions of privacy/data protection. 

Here is a really interesting coverage of recent Facebook courtroom debates.

Face book says they have worked very hard to build privacy into all their products, but once you share information with your friends “you have lost control over the information and it’s subsequent disclosures”

Here is the article:

Thanks Patrick, Ali, Barrack, Grace, Esther, Poncelet and others for your comments on the Mozilla privacy by default initiative.


Very best regards
Alice
