RE: Why I Disagree With The Strategy Of Exiting Facebook, Twitter And YouTube

in #socialmedia6 years ago

That i agree with, yet when you leave the platform then you no longer have the evidence of the bullshit they do personally to you.

So I agree to partially disagree. I see your point yet I agree more with Caitlin on thisone.

Maybe it would be worth to try both options at once

All leave Facebook and all focus on youtube. And then see what works best?

Sort:  

when you leave the platform then you no longer have the evidence of the bullshit they do personally to you.

When you leave the platform, you don't need to know about it any more. They are harvesting activity data. They can use (and sell) only the data from the last month. Older than that is predominantly unusable.

Whenever you @bifilarcoil, or @caitlinjohnstone, or anyone else log in there, YOU ARE FEEDING THE BEAST! Can't you see that?

We sure see that, but the issue is like this:
When a hand full of good journalist leave the beast, and all the sheep stay with the beast, then they are dogfood...

It seems best to have the journalsist aroound until such platforms are a bit more obsolete. As in no longer a danger to humanity.

Don't get me / us (if i mas say us?) wrong @lighteye we sure agree with you on the general thread. Yet it is a bit more complicated. We need a good strategy. And that may be different again tomorrow depending on new beachheads and fallen bridges.... I hope you can also see how that works?

BTW I don't have a Farcebook or Tweety account, and i'm not planning on going there either.

It's better to stay in the stomach and make the beast sick so it eats less sheep, then being crapped out and let the beast feed on sheep like nothing has happened.

Meanwhile I do very much appriciate your concerns @lighteye. I'm on the same side as you.
