sr777, 06 Sep 2018Jumping from one to another. Eheh~ Well....
Pinterest is more into sharing images as Ideas. what to do. inspirations. and FAR LESS about statuses and so on.
Twitter is indeed more into jumping from one platform to another. I agree. However the whole challenge is to transfer your idea in 140 (now 280) characters only. and I avoid politics. there are memes, tech info, leaksters, anime stuff. and some of my fav artists.

      thats not true. most of them use Facebook with nick names to snoop on other people then they claim not to have Facebook. people who add their Facebook to dating sites and and use their accounts for other nonsense are at risk of exposing themselves. i use my facebook only for my friends period.

        I acknowledge that Google and other companies use my data. I like when advertisment shows something relevant to me. That is how it works. There is no conspiracy behind it.

No. They just need data to improve technology. Do you like Google Assistant or Alexa? Do you like fast search results? Do you like Google Maps and its services? I think you do.

                  The amount of people bragging over anything on this website is too damn high. That and also the privacy concerns and notification nagging are reasons why I uninstalled Facebook.

                    Make it £1 billion 200 million (£1000 fine for every UK Facebook user). Give each
                    user 50% (£500) and the rest to the NHS and Education.

                      What about messenger majority I seen have messenger but not Facebook which they use on browser

Better product accuracy means they can charge a higher fee from the actual consumer. If one of them is sourcing medical records, all of them are or they're out of business.

                                  I have seen people saying "Facebook is evil, they steal your data and misuse it. I am done with facebook. Deleting my account and the app. I am completely switching to Instagram from today".
                                  Some posted a story "Facebook & Zuckerberg are evil. I am doing away with facebook. From today if anyone wants to contact me, use Whatsapp"
