Facebook has come in for a lot of criticism lately, and one of the biggest is that it collects a massive amount of personal information on each of its users and uses that information for its ad targeting. Then there’s the fact that the social network became a tool for a large number of Russian operatives to spread fake news and ill feeling during the 2016 election cycle, and it’s still being used that way today. And the fact that early executives say Facebook was deliberately designed to suck up as much of your time as possible.
Or maybe you’re just sick of wading through funny animal videos and inspirational sayings set against sunsets and mountains.

I will be making notes. The worst thing I did was open a FB account. It was for a reason (keep in touch with fellow students and supervisors). 😕

I only opened mine so the author and blog articles would be spread further, Jan – same with all my other media accounts as well 😎
