Of course, “killing off [your] Facebook data double as a form of protest” doesn’t accomplish what you want, but merely adds to their database. They only eliminate the profile, not the data, so now they have a record of what types of profiles leave/quit/die, and then can feed future profiles like “that” various adverts services etc etc blah blah blah and figure out if they can decrease the frequency of that “type” of profile from being cancelled/eliminated/seemingly expunged…..once you’re in the borg there is NO escape….muah-hahahahaaaaaaa.

I personally figure it’s easier to critically interrogate things from the inside….which is why I’M on facebook. And why parts of Men In Black made more sense to me than others.

Great post. It really got me thinking.

I’m still looking forward to that little protest on Aug 4th. It may not be effective but it’ll make me feel better.
