When Facebook proclaims to be a place for people to stay in touch with their friends and families, connect with others and such, it is like a Mall pretending it is not a shopping center, but a place where friends and families can meet and greet. Just because Malls have added some benches, trees, and playgrounds for kids, it does not make them a communal place for people to meet others, relax, and have a fun time. They are still shopping centers and all they want is for you to consume their products. To trade your currency for their stuff.

Similarly, Facebook is a place where you trade your data/attention/currency to them - it is an ad platform - regardless if they added "benches and trees", or messengers, photo albums and a comment section for posts. They still are an ad platform.

Don't be fooled!

Malls are shopping centers, and Facebook is an ad (trade) platform, together with youtube, twitter, tiktok, google search and pretty much all websites nowadays.

So, fuck them. Use tromsite.com/tools/ for your own sanity. #tromlive
