Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Cities as war zones? I don't need to go over seas for that, nor does it take muslim or any other extremists either.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Well it's certainly true that no news service or indeed anything that anyone writes is ever completely unbiased, but there is a difference between services that try! to remain somewhat neutral, and services who are so keen on promoting a given group, religion or idiology that they actively distort the truth or down right lie.Eg, Trump's claime that there are parts of London which have developed into war zones because of muslim extremists, which I did see backed up by fox news, but which is, to be honest complete and total bollocks! Now it is true that yes, London like many big cities has some areas where there is a lot of crime where your average on the beat copper would go with backup, eg, in pares or in a police car.It is also true that London, like several cities in Britain has a large Muslim population and some places where there are muslim communities. However, firstly the idea that these two areas, ie, areas with high crime rate and areas wh ere muslims live are one and the same is frankly a ridiculous leap of logic, and claiming that just because an area has a muslim community living in it it's full of extremists is about as bad a fiet of exaggeration as claiming that just because an area has a high crime rate and is a place where the police are a little wary is a "warzone" Bad data plus two rounds of exaggeration equals a load of utter crap, but sadly utter crap which seemingly a lot of people in the states bought into.The point of this rant is that yes, all news services are biased, but to actively construct stories to support a specific idiology out of exaggerations and factual mistakes as unfortunately Fox news seemed to, (I can't speak for the other stations since I didn't see them over there), is actively the opposite of the sort of objectivism that a "good" news service will at least attempt , even if they don't always succeed.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? I would, myself include NPR and PBS in that list of biased per say. Of here, we have this thing about freedom of the press. That of course does not mean that the press is not biased. Of basically have learn to question every bit of news I get. Not only of a question of what they are telling everyone, but it can be a question of what they are not telling when it comes to the news. Add to that, how it is worded can affect the view point of the receiver of said news. If that is not bad enough, throw in facebook and twitter with their good and bad points and you have a little bit of a mess. One piece of advice I can give is that the first to a story may be the first to get it wrong. Of course, checking plenty of sources is also a real good thing. Think of some of those tech stories that you see on the news that was not quite right. For example, if someone click on a link that they thought was the log in page of their bank account. Let go on to say that they were able to log in. Let’s going on to say that that log on page was not the login page of this person’s bank account. Most of us would know that clicking on links in email is not a good thing for the most part. On the other hand, a news reporter that might not know how computer type stuff works might say that that bank account I was talking about was hacked in to when the person who owned that account was tricked into giving up their username and password. Now to facebook going public, this is old news. Awhile back, they sold shares back a while. I do not remember when. One of the things that shareholders want is money. So, the more money that facebook makes, the happier the shareholders are. It does not matter how much you like that. The main way that facebook makes their money is by showing you ads. As far as I know, they use the info you give them to attempt to show you things that you will buy. This make include: pages you like, things you link to, posts you make, your age, your address, who you vote for if they have that info, and ETC. what, you do not like that? Facebook most likely does not care. You can use it or not as you wish. I mainly use it as an IM client. Grant it, it is a IM client with a board for all your friends to write on. HTH.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Yeah, most news services over here, especially the big networks like, ABC, CBS, Fox, NBC, CNN, etc., are pretty biased.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Well given some of the news outlets I observed in the states I'm not surprised, indeed last night my lady cheerd since in a phone call to her father she found he was no longer watching fox news, and I admit when I was over there having people tell me how brave I was for living in such a dangerous place as Britain and how I'd be wiser to stay in the us against the hoards of extremists that apparently populate the entirety of europe did sort of get a bit much . Oh, and to everyone in the states,That is one thing over here, the mandate of most actual tv and radio news is generally to attempt to be none biased, indeed their are regular clashes between the bbc and other news services and parliament on this point, albeit I do still try to check out alternative sources on stories which interest me or if I hear something too outragious, though I confess I am a l ittle bad in that my news source is mostly the news on classic fm, who use their own reporters or teem up with sky tv, and only go elsewhere if there is a story that interests me. Still, that is one major difference I noticed between media and news outlets in Britain and the states, over there pretty much every station had their own idiological axe to grind, where as over here there is at least an attempt! to be none biased and any news station which was felt to be pushing their own views would be regarded with suspicion. Indeed this is why printed newspapers in Britain are generally looked down on and people wince if you mention papers like The Sun or The Mirror, then again with The Sunm I fully agree any paper who's principle headline post election was "it's the sun what done it" and basically told everyone how great they themselves are (usually in ungrammatical prose), really got on people's nurves.To actually try and steer this r attling offtopic train back on track, is the Ios news service any good? It's not something I've overly looked into, but it's probably something I should as I said, just to get a broader perspective.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? @Nocturnus, i can see your point on fb being the winner in the social media race since these days anyone starting a similar project runs into trouble in growing users, however I don't know if the lack of twitter being bought out by either of the big tech morons is indicative of a lack of users so much as indicative of resources from ms and google being put into other directions as you said, mostly artificial intelligence used as advertising. It is actually depressing that technology is actually aiding the descent of individuals into raw statistics and units of consumption, though actually that might explain some of the appeal of social media since when society and the major coorporations tell people they have no power, forming a small virtual empire of some checkbox friends is probably the only form of validation left.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? @Dark,Regarding post 17, Twitter is not growing fast enough and, while it was announced about a month ago that Google, Apple, and Salesforce all wanted a shot at buying it up to turn it into something, all of these companies have, since then, abandoned ship. It would still make sense from an outsider or a consumer's perspective at least to some degree for one of the tech giants to buy twitter and integrate it into their other platforms; google and or Apple could just as easily toss it into their iOS devices just as MS swallowed Skype not to long ago. None of them want it though and are instead opting to pursue projects in virtual and Augmented reality, artificial intelligence, autonomy, and other smart things including glasses and watches and even motorcycles.In fact, I'll take it a step further and say that I believe we're actually secretly nostalgic over the early days of AOL and MSN to some degree. Apple just recently released a vers ion of its messaging app that for all intents and purposes is aimed at competing with Facebook and Snapchat, and it reminds me so much of what I came to expect of an IM client, not just for myself but for sighted users. Font attribute changes like the color and size of your text , hand writing, the ability to draw, a nudge or knock feature called digital touch, and I'm sure I'm missing other stuff as well I just haven't had the need to explore. I believe google has done something similar with Android but admit that I could be entirely wrong on that front.and for those who aren't jumping into any of these fields? Productivity software and systems for collaborative efforts. Drone and robotic research is taking off, and I'm even seeing developments on the audio front what with Amazon and google building smart speakers, though I'm still skeptical about these devices, not having the money to own any myself. Just as was the case with PC operating systems years ago when it became clear that MS and Apple would dominate the entirety of the spectrum, and just as it has become clear that Android and iOS have done the same now with smartphones, so too the hype and buzz around social media is collapsing with facebook as the clear winner. Google failed with four different platforms, MS with two, one of which was intended for the workforce. Even Apple got its hands messy with a platform called iTunes Ping, which, as you can guess, went absolutely nowhere. Now, even FB is not impressed with its platforms, following its close competitors into many of these areas, recently reintroducing itself into the consumer market with a shot at Craigslist, running to catch up with MS and google on the VR front, and launching a tool that allows you to view and act upon recommendations on everything from what you should eat to where you should hang out today based on what you and your friends have done before as well as where you are. If that last bit sounds familiar, it's probably because you've heard of all the other tech giants providing similar extensions in their software and hardware solutions. it's all about creating a huge pool of families, friends, and financial success among businesses. With twitter overrun by bullies and morons and every comments page on youtube being the next lair of the triumphant trolls, FB wins, but it doesn't matter to anyone of the tech giants.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy? The only way this is a scam is that despite any claim to the contrary, it doesn't do anything except allow you to voice your displeasure at facebook's terms and conditions, which you could do without somebody telling you to.It's only effective if the facebook staff is watching how many people post the message, and I rather doubt that, they more than likely don't care what you think or say as long as it doesn't break their rules.So go ahead and post the message!

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Dark sounds a lot like me. I have my things like these forums where I try to be sociable. Other than that, I'm pretty much, very introverted in that I much prefer to entertain myself with something to listen to such as an audio book, or an audio described movie or TV show, or to play games on the computer, rather than going out somewhere. I've been that way my whole life, not just after I lost my vision.Those are two other reasons why I quit social media. I don't care what you are eating or that you are waiting for hubby to come home or how highly you think of yourself over others. Yes, tell me about interesting or special events in your life, but please spare me the running commentary on your day to day life and all its boring drivel.And then there's my sister and her husband, back in 2012 they were working for Mitt Romney's campaign and all their posts on facebook were political advertisements. I logged on to facebook to get away from that crap, that was the last straw for me, I deactivated my facebook account and never looked back.And from what I can remember when I did try social media before I lost my vision, even for a sighted user, their user interfaces where very cluttered and confusing. You could improve things a little by using their mobile sites, but not by much.My opinion of them now is that they are not much more than a convenient way to waste time, and if I want to waste some time, I'll take a nap or turn on the TV.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Hmmm, Nocturnus, why do you think social media is coming to a close? I do agree the hype and the shine is rubbing off, mostly I think because the cyber generation are growing up, however social media is unfortunately still being used semi legitimately by various people for reasonable or interesting things, hence what I said about twitter above and unfortunately there will always be idiots, going back through mailing list, forum and bbs trolls and drama magnates (all of which still exist). Even in pre internet days there were those idiots who posted chain letters or wrote to the agony columns of news papers. Ultimately, ever since homo sapiens has had the ability to speak, homo sapiens (or rather homo who doesn't sapiens half as much as they should do), has had the ability to spill out a lot of aural, written or other communicated bull bobo.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy? All your facebook are belong to us! . No actually all your posts on this forum belong to me, however I'm not unreasonable, it'll only cost you a thousand pounds per post to buy them back off me, and I won't use them for anything bad at all (pastes picture of nocturnus onto wanted poster), no not at all! . To be honest the hole privacy vs copywrite thing has got to be something of a modern obsession, mostly because huge coorporations want to justify themselves in being able to send you lots of advertising crap and use anonymous usage statistics in corporate research, and then claim that if you listen to or watch anything at all ever at all ever they should make money off it because of a huge long train of legal contracts which have long sin ce buried the creator of anything and now just serve to increase the prophets of the bshare holders and publishers by a few more points. Personally my take on this is simply to keep my bank info off the internet, try to be fare to the creators of the books and music and games I like while sticking two fingers up at all the publishers and middle men and share holders, and keep my bank details off the internet as much as possible :d. I confess I don't use facebook for rather another reason, simply that when I last checked the interface was so bloody cluttered it took way too long to find anything useful to read under all the "Bob has had his breakfast" or Jone has brushed her teeth", or "Do you know tom, dick and harry" sort of messages that I just got frustrated with the damnable thing. I do know people who use facebook as an over extended chat system, plus there are I think a couple of mmorpgs that run through it , but even finding the chat seemed to be difficult. I've considered trying it on Ios, but again it just doesn't feel like a priority when I hear all about the self agrandisement and public posturing.I have! actually considered twitter rather seriously. Both for myself in terms of getting news and information, and with respect to audiogames.net, since it'd be really nice to be able to let people know when somethig had been done on the site, eg, a new game release posted in new releases, a miner update to the db etc. Something a little less time consuming to write than the news posts. However, I've not quite gotten around to actually researching and sorting this out as yet, mostly because of the hole getting married thing and because the quitter client I was looking at which had very good compatibility with supernova went bye bye. In december when my doctoral thesis is finished and I get a new windows 10 machine i'll probably look into twitter, and maybe e ven facebook as well, though that is possibly less likely.I suppose in general the problem is that social media is meant to appeal to extraverts and to encourage people to share pretty much all the details of their lives, and frankly when I'm not on stage performing I'm an intravert who likes his own space and would rather settle in with a good book or a good game than care about what other people are doing or whether other people care about what I'm! doing.And even when I'm on stage performing, well it's called acting drling .

I own your posts! :dnah, in all seriousness, I don't remember precisely when it was I stopped using twitter but for receiving news and the occasional advertisement, and I honestly don't miss it. FB says I have more friends than I can imagine, twitter says they miss me, and I still don't care. Oh, and just in case my above humor was not clear, I don't own your posts, I can't own your posts, and even if I could own your posts, I would not want to own your posts. I mean, there's that one company out there that has offered me tons of money, and its purposes are nefarious, and I've been sorely tempted...

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Actually, long before facebook went public and released its first stock offering, their terms and conditions of use, which you agreed to when you set up your facebook account, was updated to include the declaration that anything and everything you post to your facebook account becomes the property of facebook, and that they can freely use what you posted in any way they see fit, without notifying you of, or compensating you for, that use.While posting that message about not agreeing isn't a scam in that nobody loses any money because of it, it is just you voicing that you don't agree with facebooks terms and conditions, but that is a moot point as long as you continue to use facebook.It goes even deeper in that it became known that when you delete content from your account, it is only flagged as deleted. Facebook will still have access to it and can freely use it.Even going so far as to delete your facebook account does nothing to remove your content from their hands.All of this is just one reason why I don't do facebook, twitter, or any other type of social networking, other than internet forums like this one.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy? I mean...If you really didn't want FaceBook to use your Pictures and what not...There's always the option of just not using FaceBook...It's just sad that society seems to expect you to have it these days, but oh well...

Re: facebook is now a public entedy? It's a, scam!It's been more than 1 year since this dam post has been copyed and pasted and shared and reposted and reposted over and over again.Point is, how will the facebook read the content of your writing? They have people who control like robots? No way!If it was so, many posts containing harassments, offences or public threats would be eliminated in minutes, but they get so when someone clicks the button report and then after a number of people click "Report", they go away and you can't see them anymore.This is the truth!

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Something like this pops about once a year, maybe once every other year. I assume though that sites like that already use my info for third partys it sucks but a lot of sites do. Even if this is true a statement on your wall won't do any difference.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy? I had thought this was a hoax, because it's been going around for the last several months, but if it is true i'm not happy about it.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? Hi.I have already seen something like this when facebook updated their license agreement and users started posting messages which you should put on your wal to tell facebook that you are not willing to comply with them.But hey, facebook doesnt give a damb, and these messages exist for people which think that they have done something good when they post stuff like this and get on everyones nerves in the end.

Re: facebook is now a public entedy?
Re: facebook is now a public entedy? I'm 99.% sure it's fake. It looks like the usual kind of bullshit that gets passed around every now and then...I don't use FaceBook anyway, so what do I know...Try googling it though, I bet it's been circulating before.

facebook is now a public entedy?
facebook is now a public entedy? Hi. Is the following statement true? I keep seeing it on my friend's posts.NOTE: Facebook is now a public entity. All members must post a note like this. If you do not publish a statement at least once, it will be tacitly understood that you are allowing the use of your photos, as well as the information contained in your profile status updates. I HEREBY STATE THAT I DO NOT GIVE MY PERMISSION. If you prefer, you can copy and paste.I've seen this over the last little while and was wondering if it is true, though I think it's just a scam.
