It smells like self selection.
IF the sample of the population was not randomly selected by the interviewer (which almost never happens in online polls), then the people most likely to answer were the angriest at FB. The whole thing is rigged.
From my side of the fence, it looks all rosy to FB. From (real-world) friends and acquaintances, many of whom are techies and those who aren't at least are computer literate, only other guy and myself have any concerns. It is not that they don't get it, but that they couldn't care less.
Need to fly. Time to call and yell at my wife for disclosing one more piece of personal info.
