Why it makes sense for me to support the strike as a still facebook
user?
Raising awareness within the system, giving a hopefully powerful sign
that there's a big mistrust of the users, observing how the system
reacts (especially if the strike is powerful), letting fb users who
are not participating think why they don't strike (feeling the
dependence), observing possible sanctions of fb on the strikers: e.g.
I thought about setting up a fb event to spread the word; will I be
sanctioned for that action? I think, in case this can be a good step
to leave the system and to test its power before leaving.
I agree if the goal is to learn about facebook's reaction. But you are
not addressing the root of the problem ie, the whole business model of
facebook depends on collecting and monetizing the user data. What
change/response are you expecting from facebook? Do you expect them to
change their business model?
I think setting up an event in facebook can be helpful to see how they
react.
I agree, that it's consequent to delete and leave fb now without
strike, but I think, that it can be powerful too to set a political
and visible sign. The "battle" is taking place on different grounds;
different strategies can augment each other.
