Hi Arthur: Everything put on the internet is public. That is its greatest strength and greatest weakness. There are going to be huge forces of capital ventures trying to mine virtually unlimited data for financial gain but equally powerful is the social and open source communities. That has always been the way of things and it is not all bad. You just have to dig a little more for the best and just ignore the rest. Everything is in balance without the bad there could be no good. Don't lose hope spring is coming. :-) Jim ----- Original Message ----- From: "Arthur Fuller" <fuller.artful at gmail.com> To: "Discussion of Hardware and Software issues" <dba-tech at databaseadvisors.com> Sent: Wednesday, April 3, 2013 3:42:54 AM Subject: [dba-Tech] Any Way To Escape Facebook? I thought that I had escaped this evil witch, but apparently not. I want to escape Facebook once and for all and to evaporate all traces that I ever made the mistake of thinking that this might be interesting. It is NOT interesting. I want out! I want never to hear another communication from anything or anyone related to Facebook. I hate this site and everything it stands for and I want out out out and permanently out. Can anyone tell me to achivieve this? I have tried various solutions and still I receive crap from said site. I want to be Gone and never thought of again. Can you advise how I might achieve this? I'm going insane with crap from Facebook. Please help me nuke this mofo. This is the worst plague in my life. I HATE HATE HATE Facebook. Unless I was unclear, every single thing that Facebook represents is what I regard as an assault on my privacy and my selected community of equals, and a bunch more other things. I hate Facebook even more than I hate racist mofos dedicated to various causes. I think that Facebook is an Evil creation created by a man with serious social problems, and I want to remove myself forever from its presence, and that is apparently not a simple task. This sickens me. I wish I had the resources to launch a class-action lawsuit against these people, but I don't. so that's just farting in the wind. I want a way out of Facebook and every other similar "resource" -- emphasis on the irony -- these fuckers are only interested in exploiiting the community, and contribute Nothing! Get the fork away from me, all you bloodsuckers. I want absolutely NO particpation in your ostensible communities! I want you leeches to be heated with a hot iron and to die and never again visit my feet. There is a larger picture here, and it's time that someone talked about it. I guess that it's up to me. The corporatization of the net is the death of the net. There. I said it. The net started out as an Information Machine but it has been co-opted into a marketing machine. This is the most tragic outcome possible. What began as a machine for democracy has turned into a marketing machine. What began as "Freedom of Information" has turned into "Information for Money". This, frankly, makes me puke. I know that I am not going to win this war; they have drones and other evil weapons against which I have little or no chance. All I can do is raise a flag and then die when a drone hits me. But before the drone hits, I need this to be said. Once upon a time, the internet promised a democratic future. Unfortunately, the corporations beat us to the punch. The internet is now owned by them, and it is going to take a huge rebellion to overcome this. I don't think that I shall be able to resist the black heliocopters lurking over my apartment. I think that they are going to win this battle, and that I shall be dead within this week or this month at best. They are hovering. This may be my last Send. If there is any last message that I want to send, it's this: Please get off Facebook any other similar thing. Get off it right now. Change all your email addresses etc. and get OFF THE MAP! Do it right fucking now or suffer the consequences. Trust me, I know what the consquences are. I have been there and done that, and if you leave one single trace, I can find you and all your relatves, and if you think for one minute that is complex, try me. I can fin your second cousin's second child, in a heartbeat. This has become trivial. I didn't say I was looking. Far from it. I am not that kind of person, and I'm confident that most of you listers who know me would attest to that. But that is not the point. I'm just saying that that everything you share is a potential liability, which may affect your children, with hideous outcomes. I thought that I knew a way to escape Facebook but apparently I was wrong, because despite my best attempts I still receive mail from this despicable organization. -- Arthur Cell: 647.710.1314 Prediction is difficult, especially of the future. -- Niels Bohr _______________________________________________ dba-Tech mailing list dba-Tech at databaseadvisors.com http://databaseadvisors.com/mailman/listinfo/dba-tech Website: http://www.databaseadvisors.com
