Dave Pell on "The Flight of the Zuckerberg"
The inimitable Dave Pell, managing editor of the Internet, shares 20 quick (and brilliant) insights about the Facebook/Cambridge Analytica scandal. Here are a few:
2. Facebook is constantly urging you to share your immediate thoughts and reactions to every life event. We were a couple days into the companys biggest challenge before Facebooks creator shared any of his thoughts on the matter. Theres probably a lesson in that...
11. You read the stories about Cambridge Analytica and you think, Damn, these guys are total geniuses who can control our minds. You watch the undercover video of the Cambridge Analytica execs and you think, Damn, these guys are seriously some clown-ass schmucks. Like always, believe what you see...
12. If Facebook really manipulates our thoughts, they must want us to be really pissed at Facebook...
19. Ive said it once, Ill say it again. The only privacy policy that matters is your own.
