Amen, or Gawd Forbid... or...

Facebook... Be Gone!

Yes, but membership in Facebook is.

Frankly, I prefer the idea of a stand-alone server and URL that was originally proposed. Nothing to sign up for, no ads, no people from high school, etc.

Iâve been deploying websites since 1994 and not a single one has ever had click bait, shills, Amazon links, cookies (beyond a login password) and no tracking BS.

Nothing more frustrating than looking at something on Amazon and then seeing it in FB when you pass through...

Zuckerberg â heâs the modern Satan.

Exactly - which is exactly what Iâm doing.

Facebook is like a needy adult child that refuses to grow up - with its hand endlessly extended for more money, information, more of your time, more of your soul.

Iâve run up a free standing system.
No ads, no info grabs, no shills, no BS.

I canât browse FB (which I confess I do for around 2 minutes a day...) without hearing the voice of Samuel L. Jackson in my head - describing the experience in uniquely colorful language.

Mass media, social media, FOX news, and the like have turned us all into docile creatures - ready to swallow whatever weâre told. Good thing Iâm not bitter or cynical.
