In 2005 Mark Zuckerberg made the statement to the users that “We give you control of your information” we know that was a big lie and the rest is history. Fb is so creepy and their record speaks for itself, they cannot be trusted with regards to our data. Former FB employee or Insider tell us that Fb don’t care much with what happen to our data being used or misused except if the bottomline is at stake. To Fb the paramount goal is profit more profit or “growth at all cost”. That is why regulation of tech is widely talk today.
