Quoting: CavScout My line in the sand was the 'you may have been exposed to extremist content' popups on Facebook. When I got my notification, I clicked on the link and it brought me to a 'white power' recovery group that stated "No judgment, only help." Facebook labeled me as someone who might need help leaving the white power movement. Let that sink in for a moment. Good on ya! |

Anonymous Coward User ID: 80157865 United States 07/05/2021 01:49 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I quit a couple days ago after finding out that the DC Attorney General had subpoenaed facebook's data for every account or Page that had spread "misinformation" about Covid or the vaccine, who could have been causing harm to others. WTF? This isn't the East German Stasi, no...... America is done. |

User ID: 80433434 United States 07/05/2021 02:05 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | I quit FB and other social media sites years ago and never missed it once. It was freeing. I hear friends and family talking about what's going on with FB and I ask them why they're still on it. They respond saying that since everyone else they know uses it, so do they. People have forgotten that there are other means of communication if they really wanted to stay in contact with those people. |

You just think it’s permanently deleted because they (technology giants) have it all backed up. They have your name, your friends names, your families names, pretty much your entire life on a file on their servers… you didn’t delete shit, you just turned off the public viewing of your content.

(OP) User ID: 77856667 United States 07/07/2021 12:59 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Does anyone think that Facebook might be violating a fiduciary duty by doing this to their customers? I wonder if there's any way to obtain data about how many users have left the platform since this notification system took effect? Facebook might be screwing their shareholders over to the extent that they may be liable for damages. CavScout |

User ID: 18340749 United States 07/07/2021 01:09 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Unfortunately, it really doesn't matter to Facebook that we sane people have left the format. Actually, it's EXACTLY what they want. I nixed my account the day Facebook banned Trump. Just like that. Over. I wasn't a daily or even weekly user anyway, so really I shouldn't be given huge credit here. However, looking back, it was probably a mistake. I should have stayed and continue to push FACTS rather than the pure fiction that's there now. I think all of us who left made a mistake... It's really no different than any of us who live in a liberal area packing our stuff and moving to a different part of the country. FUCK THAT! I'm not letting a bunch of pansies drive me out of my house. I really don't care about Facebook at all... but they're winning with us leaving. But this is much bigger than a social media platform. This is actually bordering on and heading toward a civil war. The problem is, the ACTUAL Civil War had borders. North and South. Delegated lines. We don't have that now. I'm not sure how this war will be fought... but I honestly believe it's coming. |

Quoting: CavScout I wonder if there's any way to obtain data about how many users have left the platform since this notification system took effect? Facebook might be screwing their shareholders over to the extent that they may be liable for damages. I'm going to guess that a)any mutual funds holding shares of FB only look at the numbers and b)individual shareholders probably get up at the annual meeting and recommend/advocate exactly the treatment you were subjected to. While technically you're correct? In the cosmic scheme that will never be an issue that sees action.
