Comment Deleting Facebooking DOESN'T FUCKING MATTER (Score 0) 307

The mass surveillance machine is still running. Every major company is completely integrated into the drag net, and of course every government agency is.
Basically, EVERY major institution is spying on you in the same exact way toward the same exact end.
Most smaller companies are well integrated too, on the basis of their use of major company's software products, and where there are gaps, they just leave their customer's data in AWS or what have you, as we keep seeing stories about.

Obviously the media machine is trying to scuttle their Facebook, my guess is that it's becoming too much of a liability with the free speech it enables, despite the rampant censorship. Anti-Facebook stories are being pushed is rapid succession, not just on Slashdot.

Basically a hideous leviathan is being crafted.
Mass surveillance provides fodder for algorithms which program the media (which is extremely consolidated and controlled from the top down) which program the people addicted to media stimulation (everyone who doesn't know about the massive conspiracy (try not to be so triggered by that word)).
Meanwhile no one wants to believe that the whole political charade is what it is: completely false, orchestrated every step of the way to divide the population, and no one wants to believe the levels of conspiracy binding every semi-popular media outlet together with the surveillance program the government controls.

TL;DR the "deep state" is almost every media outlet, every major company, every government agency, and almost every politician, all headed by the central bank and its members pulling the strings with the hideous top-down power they have over the markets.

TL;DR END THE FUCKING FED and watch the bottom fall out of this living hell.

unintended consequences

At what point do you stop being such a complete moron and realize that the "unintended consequences" are actually the intended consequences?
You're a coward. You're afraid to call it what it is. You want to say the government is incompetent as an excuse not to take action, when it doesn't matter what the intent behind the law is, the only thing that matters is the effect. The actions necessary to correct malice and incompetence are the same.
You're just too afraid to take any action at all.

Comment Mozilla petitions Facebook to Commit Suicide? (Score 1) 52

What is going on here? In reality it's simple.
The masses realize that they have been victimized and they want to blame it on anyone but themselves (because what is or was popular among them theirselves can never be wrong according to their peculiar morality).
Various institutions (government and corporate business) want to capitalize on this denial of guilt by supporting the delusion.
That's what Mozilla is doing. That's Mozilla's entire business model, just as Facebook's is as an input device to the mass surveillance machine.

The ugly thing behind this all is the extremely lacking free will of the masses. Sanctimonious tech workers who essentially live in ivory towers preach self responsibility, but they fail to see that even in the sheltered bays in which they were born and raised the free will of the people is extremely lacking.
People simply do not stand up for their own interests and are easily bought off by Consumerism.
Society is failing completely. Plutotechnocrats are having everything their own way it seems. I wonder what it would take for you people to begin to have an idea of what is going on.

Who the fuck is "we"?

Because for most people, it never becomes an issue of questioning trust, the trust is implicit and any question raised is an annoyance.
These sort of people far outnumber the pseudo-activist types like yourself, who somehow think that because they boycott a particular product, they are dealing a blow to "the bad guys" and somehow proliferating their view throughout society.

In reality almost everyone else doesn't give a fuck and never will without profound social upheaval. Your "activism" does nothing but change the views of a few friends and family and mostly just gives you an excuse to feel better about yourself.

There is no "we". That's just something you tell yourself to feel less lonely. In reality you have a great deal of work to do to form a collective.
You can't just assume you inherit the collective you perceive yourself as belonging to.
Like it or not, this is an attitude formed in 'echo chambers'. You've become a victim.
