Zuckerschmuck in "hot water" again...or, simply more theater for the masses?

in #informationwar6 years ago

Facebook surely deserves whatever nasty outcomes we can dream up for their blatant abuse of the public trust. I am not a member, so I am not really sure what level of disclaimers you have to click through to join, but I bet they never told you that ALL of your personal data would be shared with every possible business entity (or spying agency) that may want it, FOR PROFIT.


(The Schmuck himself, who wants to be America's next "elected" king.)

Mark Zuckerschmuck went through his "show trial" before Congress a few months back, and it made me so sick watching him whack the softball lobs from "our representatives" all over the place with his condescending and superior tones, that I couldn't finish. He did the same routine for the E.U. "Parliament" later. Now, apparently, he is going to be able to bring the same dog & pony show to Canada and the U.K. next:

Here is an excerpt from the article linked above:

"Members of Parliament from Great Britain and Canada are pushing to have Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg testify before them and answer questions about his company’s data privacy practices and disinformation being spread on the social media platform....

Zuckerberg has already appeared in front of the U.S. Congress and European Parliament but has sent other representatives to speak to members of the British and Canadian parliaments, who have both requested his testimony. 'We understand that it is not possible to make yourself available to all parliaments,' Collins and Zimmer wrote. However, we believe that your users in other countries need a line of accountability to your organisation—directly, via yourself.' Zuckerschmuck has told Parliament in the past that he has wanted to send employees to speak on issues who are 'at the most senior levels of the company' and in 'an authoritative position.'

So far, Lord Zuckerschmuck has not agreed to make His Highness available to the British or Canadian parliaments, even after being smacked with a 500,000 British-Pounds fine for information breaches that led to a major scandal in Britain. Perhaps, if they offer to ask the questions "off the record" in Yiddish or Hebrew, we might get more of the truth leaked out...??

Don't hold your breath.

Sort:  

Zuckerberg is just a pawn. Maybe that is why he is can come off as arrogant. He knows his part.

He's just soft and dough-y. I do not believe the origin story the movie producers put out about him. (I didn't see the movie, but I got the gist from the previews.)

We are being distracted by bread and circuses for a reason. Partially for Agenda 2030.

Sometimes we have to go from the macro to the micro and then back to the bigger picture. It's weird world we live in, and nothing is what we thought it was when we were young.

God Bless!

Thanks, man. I just know that a LOT of these startups from the late 90s and early 00s were funded with MY MONEY, and I don't like it that they are using our resources to spy on us.

God bless you also.

Right. It's all by design. The best thing we can do is try to not buy their products and to barter and trade as much as possible. The beast system is in place. Now we need to take care of each other before it get worse.

Amen, and amen. BARTER is a big answer to the problem, for sure!

God bless you and yours.

Back at ya! God Bless!!

Fab. So sublime.

Nothing will happen to him anyway, he has money. I always have & will avoid FaceBook and other likewise sites!

Good job! Kudos. Thanks for popping by. Following you now...

You have a great one.

I'm pretty sure I remember you for some reason...
You too, all the best!

Likewise...weird.

Awesome Caricature! Great Britian and Canada are having the same surveillance push back from the people as we have here. They have to show they "want to do something about it" to stay in power. They too need a pacifier for the people. They see how well these Broadway Productions do here and so are going to give it a go.

Let's hope all the people of the (faux) "Western Democracies" put up enough of a stink that we force the swampdwellers to come up for air (then we shoot 'em...lol...)

OOOOOOOO I wanna play Wackamole! Can we do that? I want to use a bat with nails.

OH, that was mean.....I don't take it back though. Been making videos today so I'm in a go get these people mood.

LOL...Very nice. Moles don't live in swamps, though...whack a snake?

Snake is appropriate. Symbol of evil. Yup. Whack a serpent. I still want to have nails added.

Poison-tipped darts? Fluoride and mercury for starters....
