I like to peruse Yacht forum as well from time to time and came across this today. I also received a well written update from them in my email explaining how and why the enthusiast's forums will survive the cancel culture attacks that we are witnessing.
DELETE Facebook! - General Yachting Discussion | YachtForums: We Know Big Boats!

I left all the FB groups that I was following last night. I actually mentioned to the Carver group that I was planning on leaving the group to only participate in the forum and was immediately removed from the group! Did not hurt my feelings at all, I wasn't even my normal snarky butt head either! The whiney little bitch that moderates the FB page sure showed me though what tolerance looks like:rolleyes:

I have never had a FB account. However i bought it at the IPO. Maybe time to sell.
 
FakeBook is nothing but a trashy data mining organization. Anyone foolish enough to use their app or have their website on your computer, all you've done is allowed that creepy Zuckerberg idiot access to all of your data and privacy.
I second that emotion and even if im a day late and a dollar short, better late than never. I just deleted my account, next up, Linkdin, I never was active on it but I do have an account. Im purging myself of it all except for the forums I enjoy. Cancelling Amazon Prime,and you tube as well. Question... does anyone know how Roku, hulu, netflix etal are connected to Fang? Im not quite ready to put on my tin hat and resort to getting all of my content via smoke signals and pony express and the local used book store. There is a limit to my conviction:oops:
 
I'm not on Facebook. Wife told me today that a representative or someone from S Carolina posted today they were going to file impeachment on Biden as soon as he takes over and Facebook immediately deleted it. Communist much?
 
Well if we are going to delete FB and Amazon please don't forget to delete your ability to use an Internet Service Provide as well. They are all collecting your data on you. In fact they know your likes and dislikes better than FB. What you buy a dnevery transaction you make. I'm not happy with what is going on, but I'm not sure about how we reform every company so we regain our privacy. As a society we have moved online, and with that we gave ourselves openly to these companies.

The privacy thing is a done deal. Although I hate that aspect, I knew full well from the start that they offer the Social networking 'free of charge" but nothing is totally free. Just like our freedom was not free, we know it cost hundreds of thousands of young precious lives. Social media cost us our privacy. My bitch is with the cancel culture and double standards of silencing the right and the OBVIOUS TRUTH OF THE STOLEN ELECTION. All it would have taken for me to maintain my socializing and support of FANG is for the continued free exchange of ideas so the learned among us can decide what's right. Instead we have companies run by individuals that have become way too powerful to be safe. When the developer of a website literally is more powerful than the leader of the free world, nothing good can come of that!

Freshman Rep. Greene. She’s pretty straight forward person. In my normal conservative views I would say no that’s not the way to play. I’m really starting to think we need to start getting dirty with the libs

Stolen election... Just delete from life ! Sounds like a fucking snowflake to me.
 
Cant delete something i’ve never had. CSR is the extent of my social media. ZERO social media. I dont even use google, im a duck duck go guy
yep,
Firefox (although that's questionable recently), duck duck go, NordVPN, heavy duty pfsense firewall.
I do have Facebook but that was because I had a teenage daughter (Dads phone you block me you lose the phone, shes 27 married and it's still dad's phone) All I use Facebook for is public photo albums, but I recently exported them all to Google Photos.
Going to dump Amazon next,
 
OBVIOUS TRUTH OF THE STOLEN ELECTION.!

(Yawn)

The problem isn't the privacy. We all know they track us. The problem is the way they dictate who and what can be posted or shared. If you post a liberal thought or comment it is untouched. Post a conservative view and it gets deleted. Facebook is the largest media agent out there today and only liberal views are permitted. 99% of all news and social media is liberal and it lends itself to 'brainwashing'. When you watch the national news they no longer report news, they report their opinions. When younger children have to listen to the media saying Trump is bad, conservatism is bad, guns are bad, police are bad, and listen to this every night for years? What do you think they will grow up believing? Kids are being brainwashed to hate the police, don't obey authority, the constitution is bad, etc.
 
Oh... come on ...you can do better than that.. no republican wears a yellow sweater vest..

You’re right. It was lazy. I don’t have the energy nor time to really argue about these Trump cult conspiracies anymore.
