schestowitz | Facebook is a powerful tool of censorship and intimidation. The owners are not honest. They can create a false perception of public opinion by hiding messages they don't like and giving prominence to messages they do like. More importantly, they can cause or amplify conflict between family and friends by making sure to pass on conflicting signals. The network is a dangerous substitute for communications and news. | Apr 09 00:46 |
schestowitz | A network where people are afraid to share their actual feelings and opinions is bad news for everyone. One designed for PR and counter intelligence is even worse. | Apr 09 00:46 |

schestowitz | "There is a period when grieving people are irrational and should be loved and supported, but we must apply different rules when dealing with public figures. The death of a public figure is a good time to remember and challenge harmful policies and injustices.
