Facebook In Danger of Collapse
Facebook , our most cherished social media network,
until the others came along , yet even now there millions of Facebook users
,millions might be an understatement though. The issues of privacy is a really
delicate subject, in this century everyone lives partly on the internet and we
have no worries because we feel secure, until this happened. Some of us might
have figured out this might happen(Conspiracy theorist) but to those who never thought
this can ever happen, it has .If you haven’t heard ,I am telling you ; Facebook
is being used to gauge voter preferences by a firm called Cambridge
Analytica and ,of course ,they are using user data ,over 50 million of users have been
affected .This has led to various key personalities and top tech firms boycotting
the use of the site, despite various promises from Facebook CEO, Mark Zuckerberg ,
to prevent such future occurrences ,poor Facebook. Financially, the Company is
also taking a beating as its shares have been slashed off by billions and is now
under investigation of the United States Federal Trade Board. Now the most
intriguing development is the fact that the Late Steve Jobs actually spoke
about the importance of privacy and the need to make it paramount in the
implementation of upgrades, right in front of Mark Zuckerberg. Speaking at the
D8 Conference in 2010, where Zuckerberg was present, Steve stated explicitly
that companies should handle user data responsibly. Well Mark if you had listened
carefully, we won’t be so mad at you right now. Well let’s hope they can get
out of this one.
