3. I should have.

I dont need to keep up with 400+ people, 3/4s of whom are acquaintances with RW political views.

4. I and no one in my immediate family have ever used it (3 generations).

Fuckerberg is a terrible person and businessman. He knew of the Cam Analytica problems with mining data years ago and sent a letter/form to their staff requesting them to delete the data and that was all of it. No follow up, NOTHING! Fuckerberg took their word for it. My, my what security!

He didn't even have the balls to speak to Congress directly yet he goes to Russia and China, speaking both their languages and wearing a suit and tie. He is NOT Mr. Everyman, tech dude pal. He is a greedy, oligarch wannabe who was part of the stolen election and Russian hacking by the Mercers and Bannon. And it is still going on!!!!!
