Facebook’s war on free will

quote [ Though Facebook will occasionally talk about the transparency of governments and corporations, what it really wants to advance is the transparency of individuals – or what it has called, at various moments, “radical transparency” or “ultimate transparency”. The theory holds that the sunshine of sharing our intimate details will disinfect the moral mess of our lives. With the looming threat that our embarrassing information will be broadcast, we’ll behave better. ]

Interesting. I think I understood most of this. It doesn't really matter if a mouse in a maze has free will if the maze is constantly redesigning itself to guide the mouse where the maze's designers want it to be.

Are you fucking high right now? It's not about what you put online. It's by being online.

Are you fucking high right now? It's not about what you put online. It's by being online. By purchasing things with a credit card. By having a driving license. You can't escape it and you can't control it because its society as a whole that approves of it. Your only hope is to hide in the woods or start a movement to reclaim privacy, which isn't going to happen because of people like you going on about shit they don't understand.
