You are very welcome. 😀

The urgency to do something about #SocialMedia #regulation is even greater, as in the wake of the #ProjectAnalyticaSummit it now turns out that the #CambridgeAnalytica #DataLeak was just the tip of the #iceberg.

To remedy this, only a shutdown of #Facebook seems to be the cure.

#NationalizeFacebook is no solution, as governments should not hold this amount of information about their citizens:

@RussSharek I am largely persuaded that Facebook *is* the Neighborhood Water Cooler of today.

I activated a facebook account in the summer, and after joining some local groups - it's where the action is, it IS the public square and bar where drunk rambles go off. It might be less so for upper class areas. But for the lower classes here...

This is, of course, a disaster for Public Democracy. But descriptivistly, Facebook is intertwined with modern life.

#nationalizeFacebook ? :)
