Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
Has anyone used Facebook "Home"? I haven't heard much about it since April, and I suspect that it didn't get much traction. I ignored it because I would like to control my own Android experience, thank you. Also, I just checked and it apparently isn't available through Google Play for my device.
A quick search shows that there hasn't been much news about it, but it's been downloaded over 1 million times.

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
And they did: Facebook to allow advertisers to insert 15-second autoplay video ads into user newsfeeds.
And thus ends my fling with Facebook. Sorry friends and relatives, you'll have to contact me by email or text message.

Shit. If they do that on their mobile app I will delete in a heartbeat. I am not wasting my precious data on that crap.

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
Wow. Even more reason to never join Facebook. At this point, I consider Facebook a malicious site and service. I think at this point, companies that develop software that blocks malware, viruses, and trojans should start treating Facebook the same way.

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
Corporations are a lot like creepy dudes and toddlers. They don't give a shit about what you say the boundaries are. They're going to test them and see what you'll tolerate, then wait until you're acclimated and push them further.
So people will complain. They don't care about that. They'll start to care when they start losing enough business that it outweighs the benefits.
It's the same deal with that new XBox One, where when you die in the game you die in real life.* People will waah waah about it, but enough of them will probably put up with it that that'll become an industry standard too.
Autoplaying ads are already a thing, and there are enough people not running blockers to make that profitable. Same thing. People will just get used to that and it will become the norm. And Facebook being Facebook and all, the standards they set will be industry standards before long, and people will think you're a paranoid technophobe or an entitled brat if you have a problem with it.
* No, really. Rest in peace!

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
Bend over even more, having me as a Facebook friend could be dragging your credit score down.

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
I heard about that. It amuses me that Facebook use has deleterious effects that extend beyond the loss of privacy.

We spend a lot of time thinking about what to post on Facebook. Should you argue that political point your high school friend made? Do your friends really want to see yet another photo of your cat (or baby)? Most of us have, at one time or another, started writing something and then, probably wisely, changed our minds.
Unfortunately, the code in your browser that powers Facebook still knows what you typed—even if you decide not to publish it.* It turns out that the things you explicitly choose not to share aren't entirely private.
Facebook calls these unposted thoughts "self-censorship," and insights into how it collects these nonposts can be found in a recent paper written by two Facebookers. Sauvik Das, a Ph.D. student at Carnegie Mellon and summer software engineer intern at Facebook, and Adam Kramer, a Facebook data scientist, have put online an article presenting their study of the self-censorship behavior collected from 5 million English-speaking Facebook users. (The paper was also published at the International Conference on Weblogs and Social Media.*) It reveals a lot about how Facebook monitors our unshared thoughts and what it thinks about them.

Re: Bend Over, Facebook is Back
The article is at the moment, but looks fascinating. If you can overcome the source of the data. Which is a bit like conducting experiments on concentration camp prisoners.
