It's weird isn't it? I went through a period (personally) where I felt super misunderstood by people around me, and after a while I realised it was me who was miscalibrated. I get the impression that FB feels the same, but without the capacity for self-reflection or desire to change. A shame because the Facebook platforms could be, if not a force for good, at the very least neutral. Instead it seems like every single thing they do is insidious.

Facebook is creating a more Open and Connected World. This little privacy incursions are the tax that you pay, as part of the social contract, to help bring the greatness of Facebook to others.

^ This is what Mark Zuckerberg tells government and journalists.

And you know what? If you are a Facebook user, he's right! Only non-users and people dragged onto the platform only to communicate with friends/family/partners who insist in Facebook-only communication, have a right to complain.
