Facebook To Form Its Own Political Action Committee

Graham Jones · Lyfe University Draconia
FB is dangerous. For many just commenting here means that you MUST use FB to be seen. Of course that is a very big brotherish methodology especially when many of us have opted out of facebook and are apparently therefore rendered "voiceless' unless one sets up a fake FB account to be heard. (Giving FB even more control over your life.) Opera and Firefox at least give you some freedoms. Try this in Opera: settings/preferences/ advanced/content. Where you see Blocked Content, type in the following. *.facebook.*$domain=~facebook.com|~127.0.0.1 This should allow you to comment without having to have a FB account. Freedom is precious, don't give it away.]

FYI, you can comment using other services. If you have not signed out from Facebook it defaults to it. But I use FB blockers too, it's a good practice.

Facebook must be stopped. There is something frightening about a company that is attempting to become the only gatekeeper for entry on the internet. They want you to stay logged in forever... and now they're attempting to get the government to sign off on that plan...

So FB is going to form it's own PAC. I doubt I will be the only person leaving. Stupid idea.
